Can anyone identify this light? The only other clue I have is the number "705". I don't have anything but these pictures, so I know as much as you do.

Thanks.

It is a Bardwell and McAlister keg style but I do not know the wattage. I think it is a 1k. B&M make great lights I own 3 (2k fresnel, 2k open face, and a 1k open face) and they are my favorite lights out of my package.
 
Looks like a REALLY old Mole Richardson 1k light (the M looks like the old Mole logo, if I remember correctly.)

That was my first thought, but it appears I was wrong. The little bit of homework I did the B&Ms leads me to believe that they modeled their line after the Moles.

I figure that even if it doesn't work, It'll look cool in my house. :grin:
 
B&M are mole knock-offs, they have been making them for decades. One of my B&M lights is over 30 years old and it is a wonderful light. I usually order my bulbs from lightsonretail.com or 1000bulbs.com, but I always look around for the best price every time I order new ones.

Like all the good light brands, with a little love it will last forever, you will probably have to rewire it (I usually do with every used light I buy anyway).
 
That I can do. Thanks. The guy says it's a 750, but he seems a little out of his element, initially calling it a 705.
