| More info on lamp...it's in venezuela with 120v same setup as US. (well
| almost). It is a 175W lamp (like a street light) mounter on a pole near
the
| street. It is about 2yrs.old. The light is more green than anything I

can
| describe. (we do have some of themore yellowish lights in some areas,

but
I
| think they are sodium).There are some night that the light stays on all
| night, and yet some nights, it stays on about 10-15 minutes and goes off
for
| 2-3 minutes then back on again....Then maybe it's 2 hrs before it goes

off
| again... or maybe it stays on the rest of the night.
| Thanks for all of you input.

Up here a .22 will usually ensure prompt repair.
