STD 160 Fluorescent Bulb?

Hey guys... I'm replacing the fluorescent 29" inch bulbs in my
Seeburg... problem is, I can't seem to find the right ones.

There are two longer ones (the ones I need) I thought they were 29"
and 18W... and I believe they are T8's... can someone with a manual
help here?


Thanks,
Jason

30" appliance bulb, you measure from the tips of the pins on each end,
not the glass tube and end caps only.

Make sure you quote the measurement when you buy it, I have literally
seen 5 different lengths of 18w fluro
over the years, and this 29" must be a new one yet again.



The 18w ones from the US are all longer than what is the "standard"
18w (24") common fluro used in Australian domestic light
fittings. (note that this is the politically correct version of the
20w that was used until the late 1980's, which was the same length but
thicker).

Should be a F30T8
Take your old bulb to your local lighting store and they'll help you
find it.I don't think Lowes/Home depot carry these,but an electrical
supply should have them in stock..
Might wanna get a new starter while your there.It's the small round
silver can at one end of the fixture.

1000bulbs.com carries them for $7.00
I have purchased from them, their serivce is quick, the bulbs arrive
well packaged

I have that bookmarked, thanks. I recently paid about $18 per bulb for
a 60's Rock-Ola with "appliance" bulbs in it. That's what they call the
bulbs that don't fit any standard light fixture.

Your lamp most likely has all the info printed near one end, If you
are in or close to a city, check out "Lighting Fixtures" in the
yellow pages. Also your local operator of juke boxes. Ray
