B2213s at Night
Here's a collage showing a night shot of a strip mall parking that still has some old Powerlite B2213s in use and still mercury too! 

It's the same lot where [url=http://www.galleryoflights.org/mb/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-7166]this[/url] was taken ([url=http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=Steeles+Avenue+East,+Toronto,+Ontario&hl=en&ll=43.804863,-79.385362&spn=0.011305,0.019119&sll=49.891235,-97.15369&sspn=41.287156,78.310547&z=16&layer=c&cbll=43.804774,-79.385312&panoid=EqDgGdn_HJxQq0xJgEMvgQ&cbp=12,53.8,,1,-8.28]Streetview[/url]) but the night scene captures that mercury atmosphere a lot better.

B2213s at Night

Here's a collage showing a night shot of a strip mall parking that still has some old Powerlite B2213s in use and still mercury too!

It's the same lot where this was taken (Streetview) but the night scene captures that mercury atmosphere a lot better.

Nice! I hope these stay up for a good long time!

Update: the B2213s appear to have been relamped recently, the one on the far left in the top left pic are now working.

Thanks! I hope they say up for a long time too!

Are some of the lamps newer than others, clear/coated, or did some just come out differently than others?
joe_347V   [Dec 08, 2012 at 03:09 AM]
Some are newer but I think they're all coated MV though.
GEsoftwhite100watts   [Dec 08, 2012 at 06:53 PM]
I see...they look clear though...
joe_347V   [Dec 08, 2012 at 09:18 PM]
I think the camera made them look greener, they look like /DX coated mercs in reality.

Well there was a clear merc in the back though.

do those two sphere packs in the streetview work too?
joe_347V   [Jul 08, 2013 at 02:59 AM]
I believe they still work. Oddly enough there's also a early B2255 in the back. I wonder if the B2255 and the B2213 was made at the same time.
streetlight98   [Jul 08, 2013 at 03:15 PM]
Hmm. Maybe the B2255 was added sortly after? Interesting how they had used a 400W merc in the back versus a 1000w merc since it's only one light IMO it'd make sense to make them all the same. Variety is always good though. Smile

Update: I think these might have been either retrofitted to MH or relamped with MH recently, they look very white and glary now.

Yeah, there's also a pole with some B2255s in the lot too. I guess it used to hold B2213s but got knocked down. They might be B2228s too. Shocked

well at least they're still there i suppose... they could be getting LEDs like Garden City did here. Though if they didn't get LEDs i wouldn't have two M-400A2s...
