The Crisp glow of MV has been Silenced...

well i knew it had to happen eventually,for a long while MV presisted on residental streets long after HPS took over on Arterial roads,all good things come to an end unfortunately.
the right picture is before...left after...as you can see HPS is now casting its death colored cast in front of my house,the streetlights on the intersecting road in the background have also been changed.
the street looks so dark now.

One of the things I'm against HPS is the fact it's harder to see when pavement is very wet.....it's easier to see wet pavement under white source of light or at least a better CRI.....
Good thing about HPS is they actually make it easier to see in extremely foggy days. Plus studies shows kids who live in a white source lit neighborhood kids are more likely to have to wear glasses than in HPS neighborhood.....I sorta do see it being true cuz my neighborhood is HPS neoghborhood with 40 houses and I can't think of any kid in the neighborhood having glasses!!!!!
My eye doctor told me from what he's seen in 30+ years or experience is that most people that have glasses are blue-eyed over brown-eyed. Also most of his patients who have migraines have blue eyes too. Maybe it's true since I have blue eyes and I need glasses for distance and I get migraines.
the picture is pretty fair,looks as i saw it..the only variable here is the fact that the picture on the left was taken on a slightly foggy night.
the new fixture lights diffrently than the old one which threw quite a bit of light into our yard,and the neighbor's yard directly behind the pole...the pattern is now a small bright spot right under the fixture with a darker level of illumination surrounding it.
i suppose HPS is better than LED since it's HID but i do not like the color lol...the MV made the grass have an alive look...now at night it looks dead.
i haven't had a Migrane in years...they're terrible.
