Hey is there an LED bulb that I can install in my awesome Half Mile Ray or One Mile Ray (833) search light? I only see rare incandescent bulbs, maybe not available? ‘66 CCC ‘38 Express. Thanks!
Side note, I’m replacing my top white light (12v 5w) with an LED. The 5w bulb is on in this photo. Maybe once I replace it, I’ll be able to see it :)

Thank you so much! This is excellent information. I emailed Harvey to see if there is an LED replacement. The original on my 1 Mile Ray (833) light is part BW.976, I believe. It's a 12v 72w (6 amp) light that would put out maybe 500-600 lumens, I figure. That's pretty good, but I bet an LED would be half the power, twice the reliability, and twice as amazing in that device.
I am also amazed at the catalog of stuff here that's apparently still available. I should probably purchase the SuperDisk, too. Best, Jon
