And so it begins...
Taken locally, this was taken on the very last night before works began to replace the Mk1 Philips MA50 lanterns. There are 450 columns being replaced in the area, with A good majority hopefully being up for saving. This road is now 12M columns with Philips Unistreet.

It comes as no surprise, within a few days of installation a Unistreet has failed...

Sure its not just a service fuse?, all our Uni-Streets are a year and a month old now, and I haven`t seen one outage yet?

The Vectras in the foreground are now Unistreets too, I didn't actually think they were getting replaced.

How things do change, when I took this photo, Dudley were literally just beginning their main road LED conversion program, with only one main road being LED end to end at the time I took this pic. 4 years later, no HID remains on Dudley's main roads, and now thats done, all their side roads are now being started.

Oh it doesn’t take them long!, we went from 100% SOX to none within 4 months

Similar story here, we went from SOX, SON and Cosmo on side roads to there being an absolutely tiny fraction left. Across the two estates we live between, 3 SOX lanterns were missed, of those two died and were replaced, but the third amazingly was relamped and is still surviving and working two years after the rest fell.
