The BSD-1838 is a 14-V T1-1/4 twist-lock base, neo-wedge bulb that may be used in many instrument panels. The bulb is available in dazzling yellow or vibrant red. It can be used in versatile lighting schemes for numerous applications (e.g., dashboards, air conditioning indicators, button lamps, gauge illumination, warning markers, headlight switches, PC boards lamps, and even lighting for jet skis and boat).

The BSD-1838-0UR LED emits a luminous red color using 14 V at a viewing angle of 125°. Giving off a pleasing yellow color at a 125° angle, the BSD-1838-0UY LED also uses 14 V. Both LEDs are highly durable and reliable, and they don’t require sockets. Installation can be done using an easy twist-to-lock method to ensure a secure electrical contact. These LEDs eliminate many of the shortcomings of conventional indicator lamps. These LEDs remain vibrant and easy to see when old traditional lamps begin to dim and sometimes fail completely.

Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to shock, vibration, frequent switching, and environmental extremes. With an average life span of 100,000-plus h (11 years), LED lamps operate more than 20 times longer than the equivalent incandescent lamp! Savings from reduced maintenance costs and downtime quickly return the capital investment expenditure! LED lamps produce almost no heat and require 80 to 90% less operating power than equivalent incandescents, making them as friendly to the environment as they are to the operating budget.

The BSD-1838 bulb costs $4.50.
