Re: What IS this ? An old Night Light ?

I cannot appreciate at full scale the size of this device, but it seems to be fully factory manufacturated, not a homemade gadget built using a couple of surplus pieces.
As you have said, the pins looks like a regular US plug, although them could be a ...

What size are the pins ?
They looked to me as though intended to be inserted into a standard USA mains outlet, which is why I suspected a home made nightlight.
Made from a panel lamp and an old mains plug.

If however the pins are smaller than that and ...

Hi!
I could say that this thing definitely looks like a lighting device or illuminator for a pannel meter instead a night light or even a simple indicator or pilot lamp. These ones like yours were very popular for lighting electric or non electric inst...

Looks like a homemade nightlight from a 120V panel indicator. The bottom may have been a smallish container that someone put on it to prevent shock.

Do you have any digital camera photos of the light bulbs that you can post? Interesting description, but need to see them to decide if I will make an offer.

They look to me like like coloured lenses for panel lamps, intended to be fitted onto a panel with a small lamp behind.
In some types the lampholder screws on the back of the lens unit, other types use a bracket.

Possibly sought after by those who rest...

Re: Need Bulb ID ? Is it a GE NEON Vintage Nite Lite ?

Mon, 01 Apr 2013 02:07:04 GMT

No value if not working, and yes, it appears to be a common GE type NE-30 neon lamp. It's interesting to note that GE also produced an identical bulb using a helium-argon fill and designated it the HA-3. The HA-3 is a rare find today.
