Tronic Sodium Fitting Street Lantern 150W

Our review

This is a 150-watt sodium street lantern from Tronic, supplied as a fitting rather than a complete lighting scheme. Sodium lamps of this wattage have long been the standard for roads, yards, and perimeter lighting, so this unit will mainly interest buyers who already run sodium gear, have spare lamps and ballasts on hand, or need to replace a failed fitting on an existing installation without changing the whole setup.
Before buying, check what your current circuit expects: the lamp holder type, the control gear, and whether the fitting matches the mounting arm and pole you have. Sodium light has a warm, yellowish cast and moderate color rendering, so colours at ground level look flatter than under newer LED street lights. If accurate colour and lower running costs matter more to you than reusing existing sodium components, compare this with LED street lights of similar output, which the manufacturer notes are more directional and render colours more naturally. Match the wattage and beam to the area you are lighting, and confirm the fitting suits your pole and supply.
