AE 125 and Taped Up OV 25
Here's a pic of a AE 125 with a taped up Cooper OV 25, the AE 125 replaced another OV 25 which was also taped up last year. The OV 25 looks like it has a replacement door on it but I'm not sure...

Taped up...are you kidding?

Seems like perhaps this OV-25 has the Cooper hinge flaw?
joe_347V   [Jul 03, 2010 at 04:26 PM]
I guessing they also have the Copper hinge flaw since the other light was also a taped up OV 25 before it was replaced with a AE 125.

Where is this located? On a road? Parking lot?
Form109   [Jul 03, 2010 at 08:43 PM]
it's located on a Road....that can be seen in the Scene picture link in the Description.

Oh, Gosh Am I blind! Thanks!

Joe you could go back...make a very close up picture of the underside...you may see a broken hinge.....
joe_347V   [Jul 04, 2010 at 03:26 AM]
@Jace, I'll see if I can go back there but it may take a few months for me to get a closeup of the underside.

Do The Hinges Break Just From Opening...or do they Stick...then the Lineman Breaks it when he Tries to Force the Door to go Down and Open?
gailgrove   [Jul 18, 2010 at 05:20 PM]
They get broken from being forced open, I am always very careful when opening some of my cobras as to not break the hinges.

A little update, the OV 25 is now gone and has been replaced with a AE 125 and the AE 125 on the left now has it's door taped open against the arm and has two wires flying out of it. Shocked The lights are also dayburning now, pic coming tomorrow.
Form109   [Sep 14, 2010 at 03:18 AM]
That's Very Tacky of them....looking foward to the pic. Shocked
joe_347V   [Sep 15, 2010 at 01:25 AM]
Yep it's looks really tacky and btw the pic is now up, see my recent uploads or Click Here

I guess the silver lining (ha ha) is that at least they put up a 125 (here it would of been a 115) Rolling Eyes
joe_347V   [Jan 26, 2011 at 08:58 PM]
Yeah and at least it was a still a drop lensed fixture, In Markham they either use smaller sized fixtures in place of medium or mix in FCO with drop lens. Confused

So much tape! Here they just put one round of tape on about 3" away from the hinges or around where the refractor is. Once they need servicing though there will probably be a new M-250R2 will find its way on the pole. Confused
joe_347V   [Feb 26, 2012 at 10:20 PM]
You mean like this. Razz
streetlight98   [Feb 26, 2012 at 10:44 PM]
Yep like that and some have tape on the hinges.
Antstar85   [Feb 26, 2012 at 10:44 PM]
Don't forget about this great tape job. Rolling Eyes
