    I thought I had a solution but no luck.

    I cannot pull these bulbs from the bases
    It was suggested that the 2721mf bulb would work...
    but the bulb needs modification in order to do so.

    I reached out to this seller last night after seeing these bulbs last week.
    I sent him pictures of what i had and he said these would work.

    We will see.

    Thanks,

    Rob

    So I am still having no luck with these.
    I have a contact in Japan who can get me replacement boards for this machine with LEDs
    I think shipped its $115

    Worth it?

    That doesn't sound cheap rather than the cost of these bulbs :-/ wonder if it's something that would be on yahoo Japan auction site? I have never brought or really used it though but know others on here have.
    Once you buy one machine you can't stop

    Hi Rob, Is this the bulb (in your first post quoted above) that you are still looking for? It looks like the ones in Lumina pachinko frames. If so then I may have a substitute for you to try out.

    Pachi Bulbs.jpg

    The black base (left pair) is from my Lumina frame and the brown base is from an unknown Pioneer machine. Although the brown base is a little different I have found that they will work in the Lumina frame. If your bulb and base is the same as my black one then perhaps these brown ones will work for you too. These are used but I found them to be a good temporary solution until I came across the originals.

    I'm just not sure about the voltage of these bulbs and if you need something else.

    I believe these are 24v bulbs.. the automotive bulb I used lasted about 20 min before blowing.
    I see how crappy that picture is.. I have a better camera and I will try and see if I can get a better picture.
