Looking for : Small Light bulb -> 3.2 W, 80 V

[Hubert Piatkowski]

Hi folks..

I'm looking for a small light bulb that fits into a night light that plugs
into the wall. THe bulb is a weird one.. 3.2 W and 80V, it has the snap in
connector and was just soldered to wires inside of the light.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone that can get me one..

Thanks..
- Hubert

Lowest current/power 120V ones will work, although with compromised
brightness...
Among these, try:

Candelabra base - 7 watt to 4-watt units, in C7 and S6 bulbs, and with C7
ones available from drugstores as nightlight bulbs

6S6 types are "industrial" indicator lamps. Try from a Newark catalogh
or else request an "incandescent lamp catalog" from Philips, Sylvania, GE,
and Chicago Miniature (now a division or subdivision of Motorola who
took over General Instruments who acquired Chicago Miniature Lamp Works as
far as I have kept track). Another manufacturer, at least in the past,
was Radion. Maybe try a Newark Electronics catalog.
Included: Alternative "design voltages" slightly higher than 120V if
you require extra life expectancy or tolerance in voltage swings.

Another possibility is the "PSB" (pushbutton-telephone slide base)
style, maybe mentioned more in the miniature lamp catalogs of the relevant
manufacturers. Wattage is typically 3 watts, maybe sometimes less.
I see 48V, 60V and 120V versions in a Sylvania "miniature lamp" catalog...

And the "90MB" lamp, which I saw in a Sylvania catalog.. 2.7 watts at
90 volts, 5,000 hour life expectancy at 90 volts, .37 "mean spherical
candlepower" (approx. 4.5 lumens - optimistic for such a low current long
life unit)
