Those are new to me! What size is the lens?

The US MUTCD specifies small-sized signs for bike ways, but says almost nothing about traffic signals for bikes.

100mm (110, if you must... :lol: ) lenses are illegal in the UK on public highways, however I know of a small village out in the East which has a single track road through it's length, the entire length being controlled by TSC Mellors - however - the section also includes 100mm Futurit Mondial repeaters, installed totally illegally.

Then it seems to me that it's your duty as a concerned citizen to go remove these illegal hazards to public health and safety. In fact, you'll probably want to ship them out of the country so as to ensure they won't be used anywhere else in the UK illegally... :grin:

Well, we could always make an exception and lock one away in my room... safely... ;)

I have some pics somewhere, they're first gen LEDs as well, I'll dig out the pics.
