There used to be one with zebra bowl in Sheringham but it has sadly gone to led along with a load of WRTL arcs. The arcs replaced some MA50s and some other SOX fittings. Street view shows it all going back to before 2010.
Firstly Urbis I always thought it was pronounced as “u-rbis” meaning I’ve been saying it wrong all this time and secondly I have seen the zebra bowl ones on crossings with a new build crossing in 2017 however it was there temporarily as in 2019 it was replaced with Urbis Ampera LED’s, wasn’t there also a Urbis ZX4 which some described as a chunky square lantern
I recently started watching your channel and I gotta say your videos are high quality! Regarding the Urbis ZX3, it’s one of my favourite SON lanterns due to its perfect proportions and great optics, plus they look pleasing on almost every column. Definitely a nice lantern alongside the Philips SGS 203 and the WRTL MRL 6. I’m dying to have them.
@@LeoLampposts know what? go on that link and tell me what street light it is it would be easier www.google.com/maps/@49.7775932,4.6941404,3a,75y,277.24h,103.78t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sAQ7jRGDiGPE8Y4xP_-M0lw!2e0!5s20130401T000000!7i13312!8i6656?hl=fr&entry=ttu
Nice video of the warm up! Quick pointer: The ZX2 isn't the ZX3s predecessor, but rather its smaller brother. The smaller ZX2 is better suited for running SON 70, 100 and 150W lamps, wheras the ZX3 is intended for 150, 250 and 400W lamps. And all the deep bowls are plastic, not glass.
Happy to help :) A ZX3? Wow, good luck finding the space for it! They are very big, imagine 3 or 4 2600s in a cluster; very heavy (especially the high power with magnetic gear); and very dirt tight. Still, with all that, they're nice lanterns.
Just checked and i dont see one, sometimes youtube can be weird with comments so you can just paste it here if need be :) (if it still doesnt come through it might be due to youtube itself)
Yooo it's nice to see that there's someone else from the same county as me, mind if I could ask. Do you have one of the most (well was) common light in housing estates well known as The Urbjs Altra 2? Nice video btw ^^
Honestly, I plan on getting one myself too, my area in Staffordshire still has a bunch of the Classic lights, sure their are some Holophanes S-Lines and B-Maxs in some streets but my estate still has some of the older lights.
@@LeoLampposts oki, tbh i highly doubt i'll be able to get my hands on a urbis altra 2 myself tbh since they tend to replace lights when im in collage.

Correction the ZX3 (MC3 or ACM 3) are big than the ZX2 (MC2 or ACM 2)

Oh awesome, thanks for telling me! Hopefully when i buy one in a few weeks i should be able to learn even more about it and how it works :)

Like you said, buy now find space later aha
Oh yes I did say that, didn't I? ha
Btw, did you get my newest comment on the 2600 thread?
