Illuminated globes light up in vivid colors, often revealing additional geographic details not visible in standard globes. They also make good night lights.
Most illuminated globes have a light fixture assembly that is mounted through the south pole on the globe ball. The fixture is specially designed to turn independently of the globe so that the globe can spin without twisting the cord.

The electrical cord uses a standard 110v plug and hangs loose from the bottom of the illuminated globe. Attached to the electrical cord is an inline dial type switch that allows you to turn the illumination on or off.
Replacement light bulbs can be purchased at any hardware or lighting store. Some of our illuminated globes use a 25 watt candelabra light bulb and others require a standard light bulb. Please follow these guidelines for globes requiring a standard light bulb:
Do not use more than a 75 watt bulb for a 32" globe, a 40 watt bulb for a 20" globe, and 15 watts for a 12" illuminated globe. |
