Rounded dark green boxes about the size of a table model roundy color TV, sitting on the ground right in plain sight. I used to live in Lakeland Fl and the 70's development we lived in had them, same ones were also used at the apartment I just moved out of here in Wi.

I'm starting to miss the electrical grid there as I just started using my vintage sets again and a some times of day the lighting flickers and the sets bloom(usually several times a minute) which is annoying the crap out of me!....When I get time I'm going to try and track down the source of the issue.
