Lighting items at Kmart « on: January 12, 2018, 10:09:25 PM » Author: Cole D.
So I went to Kmart tonight to see what they have left, most of the store had been picked over pretty well. There were Christmas decorations left but I didn't notice any lights or trees left.

I did see one GE Slimline fluorescent undercabinet light left that I thought about getting but it was still $10, so I decided not to.

However in one area they had a bunch of maintenance and cleaning supplies and stuff from the office for sale. I saw a bunch of metal halide bulbs that I guess were spares for the garden center lights, or maybe they were mercury vapor, I didn't look really closely. I also saw a Sylvania LED emergency light for $10 but it said needs new battery. There were some spare red Lithonia exit signs for $5, and I thought about getting one but I wasn't sure all the parts were there. Because the bases were wrapped separately in bubble wrap. It looks like the sign snaps into the base somehow, but I couldn't figure out if I would be able to wire it up to a plug or not. I get one anyway.

I'm actually plotting to raid my Kmart perhaps today... I already bought out all their road flares ... only cost me three bucks for 2 packs of three (month ago).. I might attack whats left of their lighting section next.

There really isn't much left of the lighting section here. Just that one GE Slimline and some light switches and extension cords.

I went back today and got the exit sign. Looks to be from 9/14, but clearly they never installed it in the store. The wires were inside, I had a common and 277V red wire. The black 120V wire was tucked in the top. Plugged it in and it does work. I also got an extra base, a mounting bracket and the manual for it all for $5.

Raided Kmart today, did not get much other than a pack of two sylvania 40W ceiling fan bulbs for my exit sign there was still quite a few bulbs there but I felt no need to buy them. mostly was inandescent with a few LED's and FLuros mixed in. bought a couple of those weird tablet shaped LED hanging lights for like 50C each... these things I will use for emergency or something. they're very bright with 24 LED's in the front and a 3 LED flashlight on the side. also bought a retractable AUX cable and a screwdriver.
