Just to say that I went to a shop in Petone today - The Lightbulb Man- whose owner says he stocks every sewing machine light bulb that anyone could ever want. In my experience it isn’t easy to get certain bulbs so this is a precious resource! If you are emailing him, send a photo of your existing bulb beside a tape measure so he can id it. Don’t assume he will know what you need just by telling him your machine’s model. We never could tell what bulb a particular machine needed unless we saw the bulb - and we sold machines and had manuals etc. i hope this helps some dimly lit sewists - and The Lightbulb Man too.
