Thread: need a little help , looking for orange mini light bulbs ?

Tweet

i am looking for christmas mini orange light bulbs (the old ones, not the leds) , i need replacement bulbs not the light sets , it is to replace burned out lights in black halloween wire trees i have and use along our driveway each halloween.....does anyone know where i can find some (online if possible )

thanks in advance

I bought about 10 boxes of lights last year at Walmart. Maybe check there to see if they have any replacement bulbs. Sorry not much help.

Witch, i definatly orange light strings the other day in Wal-Mart. They were one of the only things out so far.

thanks guys i am going in town tuersday and will check out walmart , last year they only had novelty light like eyeballs and things light that and the blue blacklight large bulbs strings ....if they dont have replacement bulbs i can always get a set and use the bulbs from those

See if your Halloween trees have a label that tells you the voltage of each bulb. They make several different voltages and if you don't match them to the lights already on the string, they will be dimmer or brighter (usually dimmer).

thanks didnt know that i've checked as i had 2 replacement bulbs left with the package and it sais 2.5 volt .

well i just checked if other bulbs fit into the socket and they dont grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr so took a chance and emailed the compagny i bought them from 2-3 years ago and asked if they sell or have replacement bulbs for them as they still sell the same trees so ...and i am not paying 119$ for new trees

I saw some at Walgreens today in a string. They were $4 a box. Not sure what the voltage was.

2.5v is pretty standard for the mini lights. I'm assuming that the light strings at both Wal stores will be the same voltage.

Are they the clear orange or the opaque ones?

If you have one in your area, check Hobby Lobby.
