I've been recycling a bunch of lamps and found a cache of type 81/#81 lamps but I can't find any use for pins. Anyone know of games using 81s?

If they are NOS then they are valuable $$ for use in Hickock and other vacuum tube testers.

Thank you. They appear to be "vintage"... brass bases, marked in black ink "W" over the "81".

Same base as the #89, but half the voltage. #89 is a 13V lamp and #81 is a 6.5V lamp. I think the #81s were used in early Gottliebs (Flipper Clown)
