Metro audio call lamps

[bigsparks]

Could anyone tell me where I can order some replacement lamps for the metro audio belt packs. The original tungsten lamp. I can't find anything helpful on Google.

I know there old units but apart from the call lights not working there still working as well as any more modern systems.

Thanks.

Are these the units with a wire ended bulb within the call  button?

No that's not them,if my memory serves me correctly they look like the original lamp used in the techpro belt packs. I will get a photo of the lamp tomorrow when I'm back in the theatre.

If memory serves - it's this one?

The plastic sleeve helps locate the lamp in the switch.

Thanks Ian, that looks like the one, strangely I was just thinking I wonder if Ian would know.

What's the number on that lamp? I might be able to convert it to something meaningful.

12v 50ma,

Just in case anyone else is following this post these lamps do not fit, just a little to large. 

A 3mm led dose fit nicely so I'm just going to add a 1k resistor to the lamp supply cable inside the pack.

Owh bugger - sorry about the bum steer with that one 😞 

Glad that you're on to a solution though 🙂
