I just wanted to find out if anyone knows a source for a 12 volt  # 313 

bulb.  I have a cockpit map light  from a F-100 I acquired many years 

ago and I thought I would check to see if I can rig it up in my RV.  

Aircraft Spruce has the 313 but it only lists it in a 28 volt version.  

Maybe there is a substitute that will work in 12 volt.

Hi Ed,



Start here for bulb information:



http://www.donsbulbs.com/cgi-bin/r/b.pl/313~ac%7cdelco.html



A 313 is 28 volts by definition.  You should  be able to find a 12 volt bulb 

that will work.  It will have a different part number of course.  If you 

don't want to try and figure out the bulb for yourself, call Bulbman and ask 

them for help...



Good luck,

Dave

Ed,

A #313 is a 28V lamp, there is no 14V version. However a #1893 should be 

pretty close to the same output and they are both size T-1 3/4. The 1893 

won't be quite as bright.

Any decent electronics store should have them (probably not R.S.) or 

Mouser Electronics has them

Ed, find out what the wattage is for the 313,  Go to the aviation 

section of your local auto parts store and see if you can find a 12V 

bulb with the same base, wattage, and physical size (if the present bulb 

is a tight fit).  You might be able to find a table on the I'net that 

will list all the bulbs and their specs.  There is no #313 bulb in 12V 

because the number is for a 28V bulb.

There is a #330 I think in 12V but don't know about physical size.

Hi,

In the Newark catalog they list the followin numbers as 14 VDC lamps with the 

same base, T3 1/4:

756

1813

1815

1893

Hope this helps, might find some in auto parts.
