Based on the photograph, I bought it on a clearance price intending to use it as a self-standing metal rod. I was surprised to find a functional lamp with a electrical cable, a light socket and an in-line rocker switch. However, the rocker switch broke apart easily after a few days' use. Now I have to decide whether to tape the rocker switch back together with electrical tape and use it as a lamp, or to take out the electrical parts all together and use it as a standing rod. I would need to buy a lamp shade for it if I want to do the former. ;-)

I was a bit confused on to the size so they are smaller then I thought but it was for a different project and I will be keeping them they are nice and not at all cheap looking

Good product

just a bit shorter than expected

Nice lamp base.

AWESOME!
