Agree about replacing lamps - we switched to LEDs BITD because replacing burned-out lamps (especially when you're trying to fix some _other_ problem) when there's something better available is just, silly. > Modern red leds at 8mA are very much brighter.

The ones we used in the QSIC indicator panel are, to me, pretty much indistinguishable from the lights as I recall them from BITD. I mean, maybe if I had them sitting next to each other, I could tell, but... Those are SMD, though, but maybe they are available in bulb replacement form? Noel
