Note that there are 2 lights (main and a small one inside the meter). The switch in photo #6 controls the small light inside. The dial spins when the lights are on.
The speed of the dial depends on the wattage of the bulbs. It will spin very slowly with a low wattage bulb.I'd recommend to just use a low wattage bulb however as I'm not sure of the max wattage that would be safe. Measures in total 19.25h (to top of finial). Wood base: 9.5"h x 6"w x 7.5d.
