Oh no!  :( I was really hoping to order one once I got a job and my own place. I really hope they don't follow GE and discontinue metal halide on all of their lights. If that happens, the only company that will still make metal halide cobraheads is Howard Lighting.

I looked on their site and they no longer offer MH for their Powerpad lights. Only the Series 115 and 125 (drop lens and FCO) for street lights. They also discontinued their PSMH NEMA heads and NEMA bracket fixtures.

I noticed the discontinuation of MH nema heads, but not the PowerPad series. Ugh this is worse than I thought. They even discontinued it on the Durastar!  :(

Mike:
Yep so GE offers no more PSMH, Cooper only offers PSMH in 250W and 400W, and AEL only offers it in the 115 and 125.

To rub it in even more, if you want a white light that is going to be very bright your pretty much screwed since AEL's highest wattage LED fixture is 30,000 lumens (a bit brighter than a 250w HPS) compared to 110,000 lumens from a 1kw metal halide.
