[R-390] Dial Lamps

Fri, 3 Jan 2003 10:43:58 -0600

Funny this should come up. Just yesterday I walked into a local bulb
emporium in Oklahoma City, asked for #381 lamps (supposed to be the
long-life version of #328) and lo and behold they had both 328's and 381's
in stock. I bought out their stock (10) of 381's at 62 cents each, don't
know how many 328's they had. Check with specialty light bulb specialty
suppliers. These bulbs don't seem to be all that rare. BTW, Newark has them
for around $7.00 per 10-pack on their website, don't know if they were
actually in stock. I hope the 381's are what I think they are, which is a
6.3v (instead of 6.0v) long-life non-ruggedized 328. Guess I'll find out
this weekend when I plug them in.
