The bulbs should be 6.3 volt types. Sometimes these get replaced with 12v bulbs by mistake. I did that once on m; /archives//html/TenTec/2008-05/msg00228.html (7,335 bytes)

Johnson" <geraldj@storm.weather.net>; Date: Sun, 11 May 2008 10:51:16 -0600; Sometimes the higher voltage lamp was installed to lengthen lamp life.
