Jewel Light Bulb Wanted - Sorted

Post by H671 »

The jewel light bulb has blown in my vibro king.
I can't find any markings on the bulb apart from GE .47
Can anyone advise what specs I should ask for & who might be the best place to try
for a replacement.

Maybe try an electrical wholesaler like ideal or corys, it's probably only 6-12V :)

I tried phoning several but none of them can help.
I can get them on Ebay but I've got to buy a box of 30.
I'm surprised that none of our amp specialists or music shops can help.

yeah its a ba9, 6.3v

Not sure but this may be worth a try https://www.surplustronics.co.nz/produc ... lb-63v-mbc
Failing that http://nz.element14.com/cml-innovative- ... nsku=false though you'll have to buy 5.... still cheap as chups at 60 cents each.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.
