Does anyone know what size light bulb the Marx sanding tower takes?

And where I could find one?

Thanks,
Mark

Just had a look at an image of one of these.

Am I right - there are two bulbs underneath the 'tank' part?

If they screw in then they will probaly be MES -Miniature Edison Screw. Possibly LES which is Liliput Edison Screw, but they look too large to be that to me..

If they are screw bulbs it will just be a case of finding some of the right voltage 15v AC? I prefer to use bulbs of higher voltage that actually needed and then run them under the nominal voltage to prolong their life.

Let us know how you get on.

James

IF I ever get something that uses a screw bulb I will modify it with a same size or close LED bulb
