Anybody have any extra of the old light fixtures that were in the salon behind the setees? (white plastic cylinder over old edison type bulbs?)
One of mine broke, and since they are all converted to LEDs they have been quite useful in spite of their outdated style.
If anyone replaced theirs and has some old ones to part with, please let me know.

Yes, the reading lamps that have a plastic 4″ dia plastic cylinder about 7″ long covering the 12 home-style edison lightbulbs.
Here is a link to a photo that I think is publicly viewable https://picasaweb.google.com/110117171543003531139/Madness02#5720558572311887154
Thanks for responding, I look forward to hearing from you.

If the hardware is still in good condition, take a half gallon clorox
bottle and leave it out in the sun for a month or so, cut the ends off,
mount the hardware and hey! Presto! a new fixture….Bob

Sorry, that’s not the one I have. I have the reading lamps that were mounted above the aft bunk. The bulb looks like a projector bulb and probably uses the same amps. They are swivil also, but I never saw the originals that would have been in the main salon. My PO had already replaced them I guess. BTW, Academy Sports has, in their boating section, LED fixtures that are plug and play replacements for the small lamps that I am refering to over the aft bunk. They are $12 ea., have 12 LEDs, and are in a white fixture with switch.

I could not find the LED replacements available at Academy Sports… can
you provide their description or Brand name to help search or a link to
that item’s page? thanks…

I use yachtlights.com or drled.com. I got the Edison bulbs for the salon
from the former and they’re great. Really light up the area.Bob
I’m not being terse. This is from my mobile.

Sorry for the delay. I did go by Academy and I bought two more lights. I also went to Key West, Dry Torgugas, Tampa and Gulf Shores, Alabama, so I haven’t been very good at responding to emails.
The light is by SeaSense and it is called an LED Task light. They are in the boating section hanging on the pegboard. They list for $12.99 and they have 18 led’s. I have replaced several of the smaller lights with these and they work great. However for the overhead cabin lights I have just put in the West Marine 6.5 inch light that has 36 led’s. It is very bright and I plan to replace all of the cieling lights with them. Through Port Supply they are about $33 each. The best discounts seem to be on those items that have a West Marine logo.
We did an “amp cost” test with each light and compared them with the led’s. The incandescednt bulbs jumped the meter about 2 amps for each lamp while the led’s (even the 36 led ceiling lamp) barely moved the needle, if any at all. The Dr. LED anchor light was negligible. I am all in for LED lights now. The only thing is that they get cheaper the more you procrastinate. -

Thanks.. will look into those tonight
