Ship Lights (electric):
Originally used on ships, bulkhead,
passageway and running
lights ran off electricity - normally AC but occasionally DC - and were
hard wired into the ship's electrical system.
When salvaged,
wires are cut at the base and removed from the ship.
Our
salvaged lighting does not come wired (unless otherwise specified) and we
always recommend having a licensed electrician
inspect and approve any
sockets, wiring, etc prior to use.
Under the photo will read "available" if
available - if not, that item has been sold.
Order over the phone Thurs.-Sun.;
prices listed do not include shipping
and are subject to change;
see the FAQ section
on the homepage for shipping info. No
returns or exchanges on any items shipped.
