Hi, I have a Dee DE-1000-3 Meter that I purchased in the late 90's. I want to replace the light bulbs, but can't find any info on these meters. Does anyone know what the voltage of these bulbs are? Thanks.

777_evergreen_state,

After checking my Owners Manual on mine it has no listing for the Bulbs.

But since it is 12V powered any 12 volt wheet bulb should work.

Thanks Tech808! I removed the cover last night, and there is a total of 7 bulbs that are soldered to a pcb via pins on the bulbs - no wire pigtails like some applications. I put my multimeter to the solder points of the bulbs and got readings of just over 12v, so I guess I answered my own question...lol. I do appreciate your response though...thanks again!
