[QuadList] CM328 bulbs--Now OL-3828P 14 v, bi-pin

[Don Norwood]

Hi Ted:

You are correct about the Oshino part number, but that is their number for the industry standard 7382.  You'll find them in stock at Mouser for $1.19 ea if you order 10.  Some other suppliers are cheaper, but may not have stock.  

Incidently, you mentioned "Don's Bulbs".  After many years of dealing with replacement lamps for older gear, I've found him to be a last resort because while he does have some rare lamps, all of his prices tend to be very high, even for common lamps. There are almost always much less expensive sources if you look around.  I learned this the hard way........

  Hi, Dave, 


  Taking the close up picture was a good idea!


  OL is a Oshino 382BP... As in Oshino Lamp 382 BI PIN


  How'd we get that?


  If we googled OL-3828P, we turned up this webpage about Oshino lamp design.


  http://www.oshinolamps.co.jp/english/company/lamp/limit.html


  Reading the lamp numbers in one of the tables, It thought you may actually have an OL-382 and the last two characters are BP for BI-PIN.  The B can look like an 8.


  Googling Oshino 382BP turned up quite a few links to what you need.


  https://www.interlight.biz/light-bulb/OSHINO-OL-382BP has them for three bucks a piece minimum 10.
  Don's Bulbs wants over $9.


  Have fun with a fully lit switcher and other gear!  Post pictures (under 1MB total message will sail through to the list.)


  Ted

    Thanks everybody for your input...
    I've attached a photo of the bulb I'm looking for, its got 2 pins coming out the bottom,
    and it says 14V 80mA.
    Also pardon my unintentional run-on comingling of Grass Valley with Quads.
    I recall quads mostly using the bullet-ones like 327 and 328.
    And now that I can blow the image up I can better see
    the number is OL-3828P.
    I've solved my immediate problem by stealing bulbs from a little unused GV-100 but I hate
    doing that.  I also hate switchers with burned out light bulbs.
