Can anyone tell me what voltage lightbulb and what style lightbulb is in the display in these Haygain control boxes or what they use? I have one I use it has the counter clockwise, brake and clockwise switches and the light burnt out and Ide like to replace it.
 

" #1819 MINIATURE BULB BA9S BASE - 28 Volt .04 Amp T3-1/4 Miniature Bayonet (BA9S) Base, 0.34 MSCP C-2F Filament Design, 2,500 Average Rated Hours. 1.19" Maximum Overall Length. #1819 "
Info taken from the manual. Or you could put wide angle, white LEDs in it.
 
Open it up and actually MEASURE the voltage across the terminals. Then remove the dead bulb and take it with you on your search for one of the proper voltage that has the same style base.
 
Thats what Ill have to do if nobody knows what the bulbs are. I figured Ide ask if someone knew or has delt with this before I could order bulbs and fix it later. Looks like Ill have to open the case and get the old VOM out ;)
