New polished SOX lamp reflector, a possible SOX retrofit project, and more rambling

[yuandrew]

I've seen that style wallpack fixture in 35 watt LPS before on some industrial warehouses near my old workplace. They are noticeably wider though to accommodate the longer LPS lamp. You may be able to fit a 35 watt LPS in the larger wallpacks out back assuming they currently have a 250 or 400 watt metal halide.

By the way, Hubble does make a wallpack called the "Scottsdale" that is designed for low pressure sodium lamps. It's available as a 35 or 55 watt version.

@yuandrew Thanks for the info on the LPS wallpack. I wonder how much they go for. The ones in use in the back lot are 400W MH packs and a 35W SOX lamp would fit in them pretty easily. The advantage in the case of the retrofit would be that I could make a reflector customized for SOX lamps that would help focus the light down, rather than just running a flat surface and depending mostly on the refraction of the lens.
