The anchor light on my 1981 Hunter 30 went out this weekend and I don't know which light bulb to get to replace it. I would rather get the bulb before going up the mast to save time. Does anyone know what type of bulb I need to replace it?

Small Clue

This may not help much, but at some point I made note of the bulb in my '81H30. The number etched onto the bulb's base appears to be 1416 of 1418--it was really hard to make out the last digit. Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything else about it. I'd appreciate any more enlightenment you can provide once you've done the job. Good luck on high.

Hope you have better luck than me

Our's went out to. I got a replacement bulb only after going up and taking out old one. Now for the bad news....we put in a new bulb....still no light. Replaced complete light housing assembly....still no light. I decided to go without one for a season or two as it is obviously a wire inside the mast. Only way to fix is to remove the mast and run new wire. So, like I said, I hope you have better luck than me. Doug

Call Hunter; Good idea for HOW database

Maybe someone at Hunter would know. I have no idea to the answer of your question, but it would be useful info to know. Maybe a good idea for a database item here on the HOW.

It is... sort of

My hunch is we can get the data. However... owners change fittings over the years, Hunter may switch hardware suppliers during a production run, model numbers change... there would be just enough uncertainty about the value of the data to make it a lot less valuable than you'd think. I sure wouldn't want to around when the first guy climbed the mast to discover he had the wrong bulb. :)
