Favorite light manufacturer?

Which do you like? I'm a Safetran guy myself, although I do like WRRS stuff.

Why does everyone copy my signature?

OG signal collection signature, I think. :LOL2:

You forgot a few like RSI, General Signals, and Alstom, among others (including US&S and WABCO), so I've added all of the brands I could think of to the poll, along with "Other" to allow for ones that I missed, as such, you'll need to re-cast your vote. And I assume you're talking about the light-heads.

Personally, I don't have a straight-up favorite, but I voted for GRS because Lex-Cs I'd say are my favorite if I had to choose one.
They/Them for me, please.

I like US&S and WABCO the most. I kind of like PPI lights though. I wonder how rare are PPI lights anyways?

GRS for me. One of the common ones up here (and WC Hayes but I don’t like them)
