Substantial REVO TIPTON caged inspection lamp for hazardous environments.
This rugged inspection lamp from REVO TIPTON was designed to withstand hazardous environments, probably marine, below deck in an engine room . It consists of a cast hand grip/hanging loop, deep fins to the top enclosure embossed with makers mark, two part retaining ring and finally a heavy duty galvanised protective guard. The thick glass is original and etched with the REVO mark. The lamp takes a standard bayonet fitting and is supplied with its original earthed ceramic bulb holder.
We have carefully cleaned and re-assembled each part and lightly burnished and sealed, but not over polished the casing as we feel the patina reflects the adventurous life this lamp has led. We have re-wired the lamp with a very long length of royal blue cloth covered flex , allowing it to be used in a multiple of ways. We can supply it with a hook and heavy duty chain if you wish to permanently ceiling mount
