The lady I talked to was able to tell from my account that it was a 48 watt LED bulb, which was installed on 06/17/17. I already knew that it had a "dusk to dawn" sensor on it, the same as my old mercury vapor light. They have no record of the manufacturer ~ which is probably an important point in finding out its light spectrum. Still trying to catch anyone in the warehouse, to see if they can tell me more. It is @25~30' AGL w/@ a 100' radius. | |

The guy who changed it CALLED IT a LED and touted it as an improvement. It is brighter than the old one. I'll call CVEC on Mon. to confirm what he called it and report back what they tell me. Thank you. :) | |
