I guess you could always try recolouring the tag with a yellow permanent marker. Some clear contact paper should protect the ink. Razz

Yea I saw a R37's 25w NEMA tag go from yellow to faded yellowy white. The sun was shining on it because the fixture was upside down for a while it was around 6-7 years ago Laughing

LOL nah I'll leave it original. it's not quite as faded as it looks in the pic but it is pretty faded. i've noticed GE's tags tend to fade and the metallic Cooper tags faded REALLY fast. Thomas & Betts is hit or miss here. I don't know about AEL or coopers with the source name in the corner since there aren't any AELs here and coopers are limited.

400W HPS NEMA tag

It's pretty faded probably due to snowbanks under it in the winter and the sun reflecting off them.
