I love it the most beautiful part is the blue in the beginning and then the really deep yellowish Orange for the first 90 seconds before they just burst a light that's my favorite part
The faulty ignitor probably has a bad solder joint. It can be easily fixed with a soldering iron if it isn't potted.
That looks pretty cool! I like the 35 watt wall pack and the fixture in the corner are the best in my opinion!
I love high pressure sodium! Keep all of them!!
My name is Patricia Prince and I work with my father for many years as an electrical helper and when I was driving one day while he was driving actually when I was a little high pressure sodium lamps were put around Philadelphia area and now I use them extensively for growing my plants I have to 1000 W high-pressure sodium lamps back to back for my plants and they were very nicely I like your channel that’s cool
The fault of your ignitor probably is a bad solder in pcb. you can fix it in easy way. i hope you can fix it. Beautiful collection!. congratulations. I'm sorry for my bad english
Is a great light l love so conglatulation

@sodiumvapor13 That fixture was taken apart and made into the 70watt HPS ballast box that I made.
Is the 70 watt regent fixture there? I didn't see it..
Take that igniter apart and try to fix it. I'd like to see how they work.
Does it work better when the fixture is upright?
Are some lamps made to burn vertically?
Photocell turned off light?
I loved it!
cool!!! i need to find something to say rather that cool everytime. that is rad!!
The photo cell is detecting the light from the fixtures that’s why the lights are turning off
I will one day have a amazing collection too, and I already have the second 70w you named off. I believe it is a Utilitech?
i love street lights as well hps and mh my favorite is lunoide
Looking at getting a bunch of the 50w wall packs.. older NOS made in usa.. some brand ive never heard of.. but ill be honest.. not sure how bright a 50w will be
This was when I got born.
The one that shuts off about 2:15 seconds in; mine is doing that all the time now... on/off, off/off, on/off, all night long. I've changed bulbs in the past which seems to remedy the problem for awhile but at $20.00 a pop, it's not that far removed from the price of a whole new fixture.
Bulb, ballast, fixture, ignitor or ??? What's the likely cause?
Probably the photocontrol cell
@daluke61 The photo cell on the fixture that shut off was not covered to light got to it and shut off the fixture... For your fixtures problem I think it could be two things. One, the bulbs are junk (which they all are, not just the ones you are buying) or two, the ignitor is bad. I would try a new ignitor, and when a bulb burns out try a different company like Philips, GE or Sylvania. Hope this helps, if you still have questions just ask!
HPS should not have a bright blue startup it should be a dim white startup on brand new lights only old (I don’t mean like vintage) I mean like it was used a lot ones do that because I don’t know. New HPS lights tend to startup deep Orange and turns this color in the video. And they will cycle after a few years. Or it’s a generic junk bulb. THIS IS COMMON FOR NEMA HEADS TO HAVE BLUE STARTUPS.
mine has done that too on and off and on and off was because i had other lights on because it was just sitting on a shelf turned on in the basement with flurescnet fixtures so it told the photocell to turn it off and then it would thnk its dark and come back on so i turned all the lights off and it worked just fine untell it got to bright and it was reflected off the wall shutting it off. so iwould made sure lights being reflected into the photocell
why the light turned off by itself
i know how to fix the on and off i have a HPS light and its got a duck and dawn sensor on it that i can remove to stop it and keep it on so if they have removeible day and night senors take it off and see if it stays on hope i helped
i would make sure no light is being reflected into the photocell
@randacnam7321 Thanks for the info!
Parrot175, can you run a 250 watt mercury vapor bulb on a 250 watt high pressure sodium balst?
Mr. Mercury Vapir No, Because Mercury Vapor lamps don’t need an Ignitor start up, High Pressure Sodium lamps do need an Ignitor. and Ballasts designed for Mercury Vapor output different Voltages than Ballasts designed for High Pressure Sodium
VAPOR DE SODIO DE MUY ALTA PRESION
