Default High Pressure Sodium Lights wanted

About 27 years ago, I replace flood lights on my house with a
high-pressure sodium light with a dusk to dawn sensor.

Great deal! traded 300 watts for 35 watts.

I started with two. But over the years one died. I had tried replacing
bulb but no luck. So I did without.]

Now the last one died.

I hesitate to buy a bulb that may or may not work. So I am looking for
a new fixture. But I am having a difficult time.

Does anyone know where I can get a 35-50w high pressure sodium light
and fixture that has a dusk to dawn eye and can mount under my eaves.

Any help or leads would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Joe



Where have you tried to buy replacements? What kinds of stores?

I have tried Home Depot and searched on Internet. The guy at Home
Depot told me that they did not carry those anymore. They had a lot of
Mercury Vapor but not HPS.

Searching on the internet, I seem to get lost in the various stores
that offer lots of lighting but I cannot seem to zero in on what I am
looking at.

I think I am suffering from two many options and not being savvy
enough to sort through them.
