Hi all, hope you can help. I just got this Convertible, model U4109, and the bulb is blown. What kind of bulb is this? All the stores around me have the bulb, but it's a bayonet base. Thanks in advance. Alex

Yes, it is a bayonet base. It's a 120V 15W watt bulb. I know Menards sells them under the Westinghouse brand. | ||

I'll look on their website, but the bayonet base that they were selling was not the circular base that I have, it was more of an oval base. | ||

Hey
Ba15d dual bayonet dual polarity.
That is the bulb you want to look for I believe Sylvania 1650. Led it varies I could give you a link I have went through numerous led bulbs I found good I also found garbage. The Kirby vacuums 505-classic 1, every royal that has alight new or old, eureka and sanitairre from 1970s to present take the same bulb, my riccar 8650 took same bulb new if they don't have cluster led lights they will take the bulb. Since almost every single vacuum takes them. I found the best brands. But 1650 Sylvania any auto parts store has them. Les | ||

Lesinutah Could you please post links to the good LED's you've had experience with? I'd be interested in putting an LED in it. | ||

Hey
This the bulbs are a little longer but there best I have bought.
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0QUESTI... This one I just received these there average length it took almost 3 weeks to get but 10 bulbs for $18 is best bulb for price by far. The selection of white bulb and everything I ordered. They both Re really good it depends if you want to wait. With led never twist the top silicone twist and the bottom only insert only touching metal and when taking out. These are sturdier than most but the light source is a silicone top not glass like standard bulbs. You won't go back Les

Alex,
I found that if the machine in question uses dual filaments (dual lead ends in the old bulbs) and were round, the replacements ( non original) were oval and worked the same
