You can purchase replacement bulbs at:

BulbDirect.com

Part Number: 0084-WI

Description:

84 01-I2 EIKO 6.3v .04A

I've put them in. They work. $.85 a piece

Are you sure of those numbers? None of these numbers appear in their
lists. I searched on 0084-WI, 84 01-I2, EIKO, etc.

Thanks

Looks like bulbdirect may has changed their site. Can't find Eiko
lamps there using search. I'm looking at my receipt so I know I
purchased them there. Anyway, the manufacturer site is:

http://www.eiko-ltd.com/eiko/item.asp?qid=166&lid=84

That's th actual bulb on that page. It fits. You can probably find
it at Mouser or DigiKey.

Hope that helps. I'll keep looking and post if I find it. Regards

Yeah, that number is valid. A search turns up Atlanta Light Bulbs as
having them for $1 each, unfortunately they have a $35 minimum order.
I'm going to try the local "Bulb Depot" here in town, I just assumed
they wouldn't have it.

If that fails, I have confirmed via email that MTS in Texas has the
original OSRAM bulbs for $2 each, with a $15 minimum. I think they also
have the *other* bulb (for the preselector dial) that is a higher
wattage bulb. They have the OSRAM 2306 and the 2321. They are at:
