I miss the sodium lamps. The color was so much more relaxing, and in the wintertime the orange against the snow and trees in the background, was always such a warm feeling. Even rainy nights in the summer.
I totally agree, High pressure and especially low pressure sodium lamps, felt good to look at. On the other hand, and left a strange glow in the sky, they were really bad for light pollution
"I completely agree with you. Sometimes it's better and easier to just replace the fixture entirely with a new one. We also have spare fixtures that we quickly put up, and then we repair the existing ones in the warehouse when the weather is bad outside.❤
In the USA we are seeing more streets with LED lighting now, it's brighter to defer thieves and cheaper. I have redone my entire house with LEDs to save money. I love this technology.
I'd love to have one if those light fixtures for myself, bulbs included sadly i haven't the room or money to make such things happen. I mean the mercury vapor fixtures
We've tested the poles. Those that are in very poor condition we replace. The rest might be repainted. They need a bit of care, and then the poles are just fine. But some people like rusty poles for the design 😅🫶. You know, it’s a trend now 😂.
Both LED and HPS are good so I don't need to change, HPS is my favorite crima are slowly disappearing but for now no, an electronic ballast and a new bulb would be better with the old part!

Is that you driving the truck from up there also ? Don't hear communication to the driver Seem to have a nice system going . With all that I would have probably strap 5 or so(new ones) outside of the basket and Bungie corded the old ones down... Nice job 👍
It is a Zhaga socket that enables easy installation and replacement of various sensors and modules in LED luminaires, making the lighting flexible and upgradeable for different smart functions.
@@Skyworkss Thanks for the information about the housing. On the other hand the inside likely has a fair amount of material with a limited life span. I See this type of flat screen led fixture being installed here in the USA in many local towns. I like the idea of the power saving. I just think it would be a big savings to convert the solid old fixtures to use a mogul base led bulb. I have to question the cost and labor involved in changing those led panels. Converting to led bulbs should be simple and cost effective and not over engineered and over priced.

Really cool to see how you guys to this type of stuff on the other side of the pond. I was surprised to see the truck moving from the controls in the bucket. never knew that was a thing till now.
Thank you for watching my video from the other side of the Atlantic. I really appreciate it 🫶.

It is a communication module, often referred to as a 'nudd,' that is placed on top of the fixture. You can track the fixture through an app, and on some fixtures, you can also adjust the brightness. It acts as a control unit.
What happens to the old ones. the new ones are ugly the are flat and horrible doesn’t look like a light at least the old ones looked like a proper light on a pole
Menar du zhaga-sockel på toppen ?? Om det är det du menar så är det en kommunikation antenn( typ)man kan styra armaturen med. Du kan kan ändra effekten, se det i kartprogrammet om armaturen lägger av osv
What do you mean? Please elaborate. We are on a deserted industrial street with zero traffic or pedestrians. One person is down on the ground and another is up. We have TMA protection, helmets, and fall protection. Explain what more we can do instead of just criticizing.
I’ve been doing this for 14 years. So far, I’m in pretty good health. I hope I can keep it up for life. Of course, the job is physically demanding, but someone has to do it. Thank you for your concern.

What i hate about the LEDs is that the fixture is embedded. If it burns, you'll hate to change the whole thing instead of just the bulb
"I completely agree with you. Sometimes it's better and easier to just replace the fixture entirely with a new one. We also have spare fixtures that we quickly put up, and then we repair the existing ones in the warehouse when the weather is bad outside.❤
Some LED Fixtures have replaceable LED Modules and drivers, so if it burns out, they can be easily replaced

Come to Sweden and you got it
might think about geting some 2 way radios just a thought!
I already have them, but I use them on larger highways. Here, we can hear each other without any issues.
I’m not sure why they didn’t just replace the entire pole that one looks rusty!

@@Skyworkss understandable I just know the damage rust can cause!
What voltage do you guys use in Sweden
@xavierking2745 230 v
Then you go and replace them and they complain about the bill

Yes, I am the one driving the truck. There are different ways to do the job. Thank you very much!
What is the part on the top of the lamp?
A brightness sensor?

Saw the world turn from white to amber in 1980. It changed back in the last 10 years
That might be true 😂
I don't mind the amber ones but in the us we have some that are almost green.
4:50 : i think you forgot a photocell!
I know, but it's taken care of.
salam satu jurusan bro..
Salam. i dont anderstand
@@Skyworkss he said "greetings one major bro."
I think you forgot to install the photocell to the first two poles...
I know I usually check afterwards in the app. It has been fixed, thank you for being attentive 🫶
Ehh, cheap plastic junk with flat pannel leds. They need to convert the solid old fixtures to a screw in edison mogul base led.
I also love the old ones. However, the new ones are actually not plastic. They are made of quite thick aluminum.

I think these LEDs need to be Amber or Orange colored light. Bright white light at night isn't the right spectrum.
