Restoring H34 electrical panel

[Mike Oldak]

Quite a number of the 12 volt and 120 volt lamps on the electrical control panel have died. Does anyone have a good source for emplacements?

they work well but the wires are quite small so it’s A little difficult to wire them to the breaker and ground bar
very bright
they come in AC and DC

here’s what i ordered and cost
ordered a couple extra in case of accident
i have since replaced that auto bilge fuse with another breaker, easy to do. just drill another hole in panel two more homes for screws and connect to bus bar

i actually installed a new copper bus bar
in both DC columns because previous work had cut them not sure why

now it’s all clean and dafe

I replaced all the 12V ones with LED's picked up on Ebay. Real nice. Now am looking for LED's for the 110 side, but that is just for show LOL.

I got LED's from Radio Shack. Oh . . wait. But seriously., they are available elsewhere and are much brighter than the originals.

If you overnight on your boat very bright LEDS can be annoying in the dark.
I use Blue Sea panel LEDS from Defender or Amazon.

Did mine several years back with Radio Shack LED's .. a worthwhile project. My anchor light is the only bulb (ok, steaming light too) not converted to LED.. MUCH less battery consumption at night.
