Cooper OVW Street Light (modern OV-25) overview video

A very nice NOS (new old stock) OVW in 400w HPS. This fixture is made for the Texas Department of Transportation, and is a custom designed fixture. Video explains the rest about the fixture, hope y'all enjoy!

Very interesting fixture

TXDOT did use these, until they started using LED street lights. These were also in 250W and even 150W. The 150W ones used in underpasses. Plus, these were also available in black finish housing, instead of the light grey housing.

@@EYL8902 I know they did, I live in Texas as stated in the video. They came in Gray, Black, Green, Terracotta, and other colors depending on what TXDOT wanted. I own a black 250w PSMH one (got it after filming this video) and that will get a video soon. They used them in 150-400w, i stated that as well.

@@EYL8902 I think I mentioned them in the video but I don’t remember. Four are known to exist. I discovered 3 of them 2 years ago in an intersection, and recently I found another on marketplace with a bunch of other TXDOT fixtures that came from an auction. The black PSMH one was a surprise, I didn’t catch it in the listing photos. I will be selling some of these TXDOT fixtures soon, though.
