Tripping over some fantastic lights

Yes, thats what Mary will be doing when she comes home from work and stumbles over these on the living room floor, as well as feeling nauseous at the title for this post (a reference to her love of music/dance). Its been a cold and bleak few months, so to keep the boat project moving forward, I've selflessly been collecting old ship lights for the interior of Misterton and squirreling them away in the flat. These have all come via eBay from various places.

I'm not sure where they would've been used originally, but the five big ones are very heavily constructed, they'll be used for room lighting. The small ones will be used in corridors.

The wires running into them have been used to test various low energy 12v bulbs, both CFL and LED. Mary has seen extensive demonstrations of this, bet she didn't know married life would be so much fun. :)
