The OVX!!! I got this fixture, didn't have a ballast...so I put a Cooper 150 watt HPS ballast in it...I tried to make it like how it is supposed to be put together...It is not 100% the way the factory does it.... This fixture body is from 1992, the ballast I installed is from 1996 so it is pretty close! Keywords: American_Streetlights

I don't see much of the OVX, but all of them I see are 400w HPS. I have never seen a OVX with a plastic lens and I don't want to. I'd imagine they're ugly. Can someone take a pic of a OVX using a plastic refractor.
gailgrove   [Jun 03, 2011 at 09:29 PM]
Sure, I know of one, and its a 400 watter Shocked Yes its terribly ugly Rolling Eyes
Niceish light Jace Laughing

Is this the OVX I am getting? xD
A_lights   [Nov 28, 2011 at 09:44 AM]
I'm getting this! Very Happy

Ian was very very very NICE and UNSELFISH to let Aaron have the OVX.... This is how wonderful and unselfish Ian can be! Let's all give the kudos to Ian for being just a thoughtful person!

That thing is HUGE! There are some of these in HPS FCO here, but only a handful of them that I know of.
GullWhiz   [Nov 28, 2011 at 02:09 PM]
Oh it's not that big actually......it's just the angle of the the picture that makes it look big...but its NOT! It's pretty small actually.....
gramirez2012   [Nov 28, 2011 at 02:10 PM]
Oh ok. How much does that fixture weigh approximately?
GullWhiz   [Nov 28, 2011 at 02:12 PM]
without or with ballast...if with ballast it really really varies....and trust me NOTHING is as heavy as this 45 pound beast!
mercuryvaporrocks   [Dec 01, 2011 at 04:19 PM]
Mine weighs 39 lbs.
GullWhiz   [Dec 01, 2011 at 11:13 PM]
In 400 watt I assume
streetlight98   [Dec 01, 2011 at 11:15 PM]
His is 400w mercury I believe.
mercuryvaporrocks   [Dec 01, 2011 at 11:45 PM]
Yeah mine is 400 watt mercury vapor.

Now I am glad to have my own OVX. xD I didn't even need this. That's why I decided to give it to Aaron, because he had no cobrahead and even though I had no OVX at the time and didn't think I would get one anytime soon, I just wanted to be nice and care about someone else. xD
A_lights   [Dec 21, 2011 at 10:56 PM]
Thanks for thinking about me Smile
LilCinnamon   [Dec 21, 2011 at 10:59 PM]
It was hard to give up, but I did. xD Jace gave me a choice of having his or giving it up to you. I decided to give it up to you. xD Even though he didn't force me.

I don't regret making that decision. xD

When are you getting this OVX?
A_lights   [Dec 21, 2011 at 11:03 PM]
That's good

Sometime after the mad package shipping times are over , he's repairing it and the. Sending HPS lamps
LilCinnamon   [Dec 21, 2011 at 11:06 PM]
He will be sending me refractors in the future, I desperately need small refractors. xD

At least I have an extra Flat Glass....
gailgrove   [Dec 22, 2011 at 07:47 PM]
Ian how do you "desperately need small refractors"? All of your lights have refractors... Rolling Eyes
LilCinnamon   [Dec 22, 2011 at 07:54 PM]
Not really. And the "Desperatly" was an exaggeration. D

Some of my lights are missing refractors. I didn't have one outside on my 115 cause I was short on them. Not all my lights came with one.
