Ecko Atlantic One
Acquired October 2019 in a joblot, this Ekco Atlantic one minus the plastic trough reflector, as it was smashed when I collected it. Interestingly its Switch Start, something not normally associated with these fittings. The clips to hold the cover plate or trough in place are of extremely high quality, they're sprung loaded quarter turn buckles, and are properly designed to do the job. The gear tray is held in place with two wing nuts, release those, and the whole unit can be removed as one piece allowing maintenance and component replacement to be carried out at ground level, a very handy feature. The whole fitting just oozes quality, something so sadly lacking today, I'd love to get this one restored, but I need another reflector for it.
