Check the
configuration of the bulb which you are replacing. Compare it to the diagrams
below, and
select the low volt bulb that suits your needs.
The G4 bi-pin
Base bulb
is the
most popular miniature halogen bulb. The bi-pin socket is normally a press
fit socket, where the bulb is secured by friction as you insert the bulb
in the socket.
In the Bayonet Base series, the bulb normally is inserted and
secured by a slight twist.
The Wedge Base Xenon bulb is similar to the halogen Bi-pin bulb,
but without the pins. The contact points or leads are folded over
and
pressed against the base of the bulb. Like the bi-pin this is a press-in
bulb, which secures the leads on the wedge against the contacts inside
the socket by friction.
