Westinghouse Lighting Corp 3-Feet Beaded Chain, Nickel



No bargain, but a perfect pull chain replacement
This is an ordinary 30 inch pull chain, reasonably strong and well manufactured. Perfect for fixing a closet light whose pull string had unraveled.

A brief note is in order about the price, though. When I bought this from Amazon, it was around $5. Doubtless you could save a lot of money if you could find this at a nearby local store (and in fact, you easily can find other listings right here on Amazon for the exact same item for only $1.50 or so). But I was in a hurry was having a lot of trouble finding a similar thing locally. If you're not in a hurry and/or don't already have free 2-day shipping, I suggest you grab one at a lower price from one of the other Amazon listings.

Should post label instructions!
I wanted to use this as a pull chain for a ceiling light. However, on the back of the package is a warning not to let the chain come in contact with a light bulb! This wasn't on the page I ordered it from, and defeats the reason I ordered it in the first place! And I am still unable to find the right chain anywhere except at one site selling it for $.24, but charging over $12 for S/H! Anyone have any suggestions? I won't bother returning this chain - might be useful someday!

Happy
It was exactly what I expected. And went further then we expected. Will defiantly order again if needed. Told friends also!
