Shonan Kosakusho Co. Brass 30cm searchlight mounted on an Ex MOD mortar tripod.
The searchlight is reclaimed from Super tankers built during the 1970s and originally operated a 1000 W searchlight bulb, here at Loomlight we have fabricated and fitted a seven lamp circular bar with ES27 Fittings and Edison tubular bulbs.
The reflector was also fabricated here at Loomlight and comprises of a brass dish with a copper dome insert.
We have stripped and polished all the internal parts of the lamp which were originally painted black.
The tripod is anodised black aluminium and is adjustable in height so the lamp can stand from 120cm to 150cm tall, this is Ex.MOD and originally used in the field.
There is a lamp shifter which allow the lamp to be set near to the glass or right back infront of the reflector, this operates using a dial that turns a worm gear, same as you would find in a theatre Fresnel...
