Just seemed awfully far off in the weeds, being that per my recollection
aircraft lighting stuff is +generally+ designed for 400Hz AC @ 26V or
possibly @ 115V. They also use 28V DC for certain applications.
I don't think
wires care AC or DC, they have ratings for both. The
frequency matters even less.
Most of these have the shape to fit a large variety of disk drives which
have 24v indicator supplies, if you are correct about the 26v.
I doubt these are 115 V
the link is corrected below.
I trimmed out a lot of ebay session crap you guys don't need and my
email client pastes text, so I didn't test the trimmed link.
Thanks for the update to add that, Vince. The text I copied and pasted
above the link happens to be the title of the auction. I routinely save
that trimmed out of the link as well in case I need to refer to it.
thanks
Jim

1) Bad link.
2) Invalid item number.
3) What does this have to do with vintage computers? Just posing random
eBay sales?
Last time I looked a lot of computers had lamps for their indicators.
Snark followup to a member who is posting parts for others isn't necessary.
