1938 NH rear bulb.

Post by Nick Young »

Hello,
One of the filaments in MT110 tail light bulb has "blown" and obviously needs replacing. It is a twin filament bulb (rear brake and light) being a 6 volt 18/6 watt.
Can someone please confirm that these are the correct bulb wattages and also recommend where to buy one?

This will be a pattern rear light as the originals used a single filament bulb, the Wattages you quote are standard for a tail lamp bulb and will be available wherever 6Volt bulbs are sold, ref 384, I would recommend Draganfly, but then I would, wouldn't I?

LED's available here. ( Lower current giving your dynamo and battery a breather)
