This lamp features a rotating "propeller" that turns at a steady rate of 6 rotations per minute. Inside are actual Lycoming engine cylinders dressed with pushrod tubes, valve covers, fuel prime tube, oil cooler line and wires. We even added an actual section of the Lycoming starter motor.
This Piper yellow cowling is a unique piece, crafted from a 1958 Piper PA-22 Tri-Pacer cowling. History is known! Serial number of 22-6440 and known tail number of N9524D.
This is sure to add a touch of industrial and aviation style to any space!
· Our most popular cowling light.
· This engine cowling was originally manufactured by the Piper aviation company.
· Where the propeller used to be is now the coolest Edison style bulbs we could find. They are huge!!
· We installed cylinder heads inside the cowling; these are from the same motor that would have been in this plane.
· The propeller spinner and Piper emblem is also vintage Piper.
o Picture shows the shorter version of the Piper spinner, if you prefer we can swap it out with the slightly larger Piper spinner typically seen on Tri-Pacers.
· The attached dimmer switch will allow you to adjust to any light levels.
· The bulbs are secured with heavy duty high quality light sockets. Sockets are common medium size.
· The lamp cord is heavy duty, with a ground. All surfaces of the lamp are grounded for safety.
· Electrical components used in the making of these lamps are UL approved.
· All new wiring is secured, safe, and meets safety standards.
· With the spinning version, the spinner and bulbs rotate at 6rpm’s and rotating can be turned on or off with the installed switch. The rotating mechanism is heavy duty, safe, and UL listed.
