Dave is it really '75-'79? Perhaps more of '77-'79? Reason why I think so is because of the NEMA tag and the grooved line on the door for the NEMA and I believe NEMA tags didn't come out until 1977? Right?

Funny thing......my 1980 one has a door without holes....or even the line.....but it has a tag!

Some GE fixtures as early as '75 had NEMA tags. I know a pocket of GE M400 split doors that were installed on a freeway in '76 and most of them had tags! 400w mercs.

Maybe on of Jace's cousins jumped around on it too much causing the ballast to short out Laughing
