Okay guys, with all the glory of the recent lighted panels, I really want to get new tub bulbs for the 806 and the 702. I know I can get them online, but I was wondering if you guys have found a hardware store source for these little buggers. The hard part, DC/BAY bulb, 120v, 10W. At Grainger, I sell a 6w bulb, but it is a S6 lamp (4V754). I have no way of knowing if the original bulb is a S6, or a B6 or a S8? No where on the bulb is a Trade Lamp number, so again, nothing to really go by when crossing. Any help is appreciated. Thanks! Ben |

Ben ... I actually found a brand new bulb for my 1954 101P console light from the Maytag dealer! It cost $2.50. Bet you could probably order one. |

It didn't happen to look like this bulb? I know the dial indicator bulb on the Pink 56 gas Maytag was a miniature bulb, that was quite a bit smaller than this bulb, and a single contact. Let me know what you had. When I get to Cory's I'm gonna get the parts book out... Ben BTW - I can't wait to see the AMP when you get it back from the paint shop! |

Check your local lighting distributor. Sometimes you might even find a store that specializes in light bulbs. |

I buy them at Lowes or Ace hardware stores in the specialty bulb sections. They should have a similar appliance bulb in 15 or 25 watt. I put a 15W in my 160 last week and should used 25W as it's a little dim. I used a 25W in the A906 and it was perfect. You can use a little less wattage in the timer dial light, 15W would be fine.
