Supervox
(Pickup in store only)
Unusual steampunk Bluetooth speaker and lamp, made from an original vintage McMichael Supervox 498 valve radio receiver, originally manufactured about seventy years ago.
This artwork also includes up-cycled and re purposed components.
A Bluetooth subsystem is installed beneath the newly replaced speaker cloth. When this has been switched on, the speaker changed colour within, and can be simply paired to a mobile phone or other Bluetooth audio source. This can be switched by an amber toggle switch on the right side.
Two vintage thermionic valves flicker on top. Also on top are two of the original capacitors.
The E27 Edison bulb on the top can be dimmed from the "Skull & Crossbones" control on the right.
In the centre is the original glass tuning panel.
On the right side is a recessed illuminated blue switchable USB charger which has a blue digital voltmeter that monitors the internal power supply.
A green glow emanates from underneath from a re-purposed car mirror indicator.
All electrics and electronics are new. There are five electronic modules within including the linear-mode power supply, rotary lamp dimmer, Bluetooth system electronics, USB charger and USB Voltmeter, and lower LED array.. The appliance is Class I as defined in IEC 61140 and has been tested. The traditional green fabric double insulated 3 core 1.4 metre cable is terminated with a black 13-amp plug, which complies with BS 1363.
This artwork is 40 cm high X 40 cm wide X 20 cm deep.
