Indicator assembly

Post by oggimyson »

Hello,
I've looked high and low and I'll be darn if I can't find a 6.3 volt indicator assembly- I want a round bulb- not square. Does such a thing exist or am I going to have to use the Mouser 120v assembly?
Thanks

Aren't the Fender jeweled pilot lamps run off the heater's 6.3?

I posted ,but it didn't get here..lol

I think the parts numbers should be in the files,or Graydon may have them memorized..lol

No matter what indicator you use, most are easy to change the bulb for a different voltage.
I've even used the fender type as Paul,and used the top hat lens, just cut it off from the back. Also the square Radio shack 120v,you can slide the bulb out,and use a 6.3 bulb and put it back together,very easy.

I really like the top hat bulbs Mark sent me. They were 12v but are really bright even on 6v,and will last alot longer..

I don't know if Paul knows this but, even in the fender type bulbs,which is a 47.. they make others that you can use in there place, that have about 10 times the bulb life than the stock # 47 and cost about the same.

607-6010M3 is the Mouser number for the round indicator that looks very similar to the old Marshall indicator. This is a 110V indicator. I run it off the primaries of the PT.

I don't quite have it memorized, but I'm close to that point. :roll:
