I have also used the BA9SF-W-12VAC LED Lamp ($1.98) in my Corsair-II.  As I ran 
the Corsair-II for sixteen hours a day, seven days a week until recently, I've 
run several of these LED lamps to failure over the past few years. It appears 
the version you are using is a 9 LED model and likely much brighter than the 
single LED version I’ve been using.

While I was waiting patiently for Ten Tec to come out with a Corsair III, the 
meter light in my Corsair II blew out.  Rather than drive to Rockford to buy a 
new lamp, I decided to try replacing it with an LED unit.  I bought one from 
superbrightleds.com, and it is their model BA9S-WHP9.  It is the cool white 
light model.  It really lights up that meter, and despite the back of the meter 
being somewhat yellow from age, it makes it really readable.  They go for about 
$10.
