I picked up what i thought was a tri-lite or tripp lite sealed beam beacon. Turns out its owl lite. Everything looks the same as a tripp lite except the upper lamp holder and rotator drive. I havent taken a picture yet, but the lamp holder is a double spring loaded on a hinge for each bulb. It opens upward. And its a gear drive, everything else i research is a belt drive. I paid 20$, the red dome is a solid 10/10. The tall chrome enclosed base is a good 8/10. It has a gear clamp style retaining band which i found a amver dome and same retaining band on the side of a highway. Ill get pictures in the morning, but this has me stumped. Any ideas? Says its made in fort erie. Picked it up at the barrie automotive flea market with a pair of round top da beacons and a 58" mx7000. Could hve snagged one more round top da and 2 amber lenses, whelen gaurdian and nice all 8" general electric traffic light. Ran out of cash for that day. Plus i got lots of stuff my truck needed or will need.
