hello everyone, does anyone know what voltage is this lamp used for flashing in the firepower II? I did not find the voltage in the Manual so I do not know if anyone of you knows what voltage it has

455 is the # for flasher bulbs, which are ~ 6v. But it's the bulb's circuitry that makes it flash.

currieddog so it is the same as the other bulbs, are they 6.3 volts? Will there be a difference in watts?

Quoted from currieddog:

Currieddog, you are incorrect!
That is why I tried to get him to post in the proper forum. It is a 13.5 volt #67 bulb. The blinking is controlled by the board.

Table 4 on page 20 of the handbook says it is a type 83 bulb. I have no idea what bulb type that would be, never heard of one.

Most games of this era use #89 bulbs in flashers.

I just noticed that this is an SS game.

Mikala Hello then, how can I contact you or the forums to find out what voltage and watts corresponds to this lamp itself?
