i've seen some HPS Highbays in Parking Garages....but for the most part nearly all of them i see are metal halide and a very rare few mercury,never seen any incandescent ones.

Cool Highbays btw....any chance of you firing these two Suns up?

Thanks, I will fire them up eventually but first I have to open them up and change the ballast tap to 120 volt (there 347 volts right now) and that looks kind of complicated. There are 58 more of these where they came from (I bought them for $15 each) they had been replaced with T5HO high bays.

Nice finds, I've seen HPS highbays used before in parking garages too and in some stores, and I see pics of HPS highbays in gyms before too.

I mostly seen the MH ones used here, and some out of service incandescent ones but I haven't seen a MV highbay.

Thanks Joesph, I haven't seen many HPS high bays either but these where in a warehouse (ironical of a lighting company)

Edit/Update: I have opened them up and changed the tap (a hour of my life wasted ) and decided to replace the nuts bolts and screws holding them together since they where very bad quality, I will also replace the cables and put on twist lock plugs

You should use standard plugs, so you can plug 'em in.

I'll then make a adapter so I can plug them in But twist lock plugs are expensive so it will have to wait.

If they're expensive, and you need an adapter to plug them in, wouldn't it be a lot cheaper and easier to use a standard household plug?

BTW that huge mess in the background is gone, and I put the B2255 back together

You have a lot of binders.

^Yeah LOL

There were like 40 400w MH Lithonia CXD lobays at my school that got replaced with cooper motion sensor fluorescent. Unfortunaly, I never made to move to get one when I had the chance
