Need advice,

I'm fixing up an old Hallicrafters Tube radio and I look to replace the
original type 47 bayonet lamp with a long lasting LED lamp. Specs for a
type 47 lamp are as follows:

Miniature Bayonet (BA9)
Circuit volts 6-9v
Rating volts 6.3v
Rating Amp 0.15a
Life 3,000
MCSD .52


I believe that another bulb number has a significantly longer life than
3,000 hours

The #1891 bulb is another bayonet bulb, but it is rated at 14 volts & 0.24
amps

The #1847 is the long life lamp made to replace the #47. It is the
same base, glass, voltage, and current rating as the #47 and a drop in
replacement. If you want it dimmer or slightly colored, just dye the
glass.
