When I made my green lights I bought my bulbs at Granger:  http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/wwg/search.shtml?searchQuery=f40g&op=search&Ntt=f40g&N=0&GlobalSearch=true&sst=subset

Brian, what brand light was that?  Was it these as they sell replacement bulbs thru their site:  http://www.greenfishlights.com

But did you catch anything is the real question..... :greengrin:

Thanks Larry, It looks like you can only order a 6 pack. I just need 1 to fix my light, bulb busted when it got hit by my prop. Forgot it was sitting back there when my anchor came loose and had to move quick. May need to order the six pack if it is best option. Was hoping there was a local place.

Are you going next weekend to rosey?  If so, I'll see what I can do at Grainger about getting you one....

Looks like the Grainger branch by me has them in stock vs the one at I-17 & 101 ish is out of stock - but willing to stop & chat with them if you want me to.  I can stop right after work on Tuesday morning as it's right down the road....

No rush to fix it, if they have one in stock and you don't mind grabbing it that would be awesome. Not sure if heading to Rosie yet.

I called city lights, they haven't stocked them since 2006. So Larry if if you can snag one for me I'd really appreciate it. If they're cheap pick up 2 so I have a spare.

No problem Brian!  Just so we're on the same page - numbers on the bulb say something like F40 or F40T12......  If unsure & am able, just measure the bulb diameter.  Should be 1 1/2" for a T12 type bulb.  And I'm assuming it's a 40w bulb
