Default Anyone know anything about these?

What Kind of Socket is this?


















All these lights have been donated to the theatre and are in need or much maintainance/repair. The only light I can find any info on is the LTM Pepper200.

The Bardwell & McCallaster had been wired to use a household screw base lamp, it is missing its reflector. The rest are mostly complete.

I need the exact address of your theatre, right now.
I'm coming to "borrow" that Mole-Richardson fresnel.

We actually have 2 of them. I'm hoping to get them both into the regualar intentory although then I wouldn't use them much because I use as many oddball lights as I can find...

Are they rare or something?

Seriously, the replacement for the model 2821 is the 4821.

They might use same lamp, I can't see the nameplate too well.

Replace the plug on the Mole, I don't like that type of plug.

Nope, Different Lamp, The Lamp has a bayonett type Base(Similar to an 3" Fresnel) although I haven't examined it closely.

All the Units have that type of plug. Thats the only thing I think I'll need to change on the Mole-Richardsons and the LTM, The Bardwell had been completely rewired to use a household screw-base lamp which I removed and am going to reconnect the original socket(the one in the top picture) if the lamps are still available, otherwise I'll put in a regular Fresnel/Altman 360(radial) base and adapt some reflector out of our massive collection of old parts to work.

All the plugs will be changed out to stagepin once I get them all in working order.

Please repaint the god awful gold yoke.
I think they actually have a tint formula for paint resellers.

I'mm probably swap those yokes out too since I don't think a C-Clamp will connect to it..

Someone makes an adapter, I think.
I bet one of those nocturnal antique fixture people will be along soon enough to correct me.

It's hard to tell exactly from the scale , but I believe it's a Mogul Bi-Pin, it might be Medium Bi-Pin however.
