{"product_id":"dr173-generic-15w-sbc-pilot-globe","title":"DR173 Generic 15W SBC Pilot Globe Universal Appliance Lamp Part, Small Bayonet Cap Light Globe","description":"\u003cp\u003ePilot globes are the small lamps used where only a little light is needed. DR173 is a generic 15W pilot globe with an SBC, or small bayonet cap, base. It's a universal part rather than one made for a particular brand, so the things to check are the base type, the wattage and the size of your old globe, which needs to fit inside the existing cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right small bayonet globe\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn SBC base has two small pins on the side that lock into slots in the holder when you push in and twist. It's smaller than the standard bayonet base used in most household light fittings, so check your old globe carefully. Match the wattage too. A higher wattage globe runs hotter inside a small cover and can discolour or melt plastic parts, while a lower one may look dim. If the new globe still won't light, the fault is probably in the holder, its wiring or the switch that controls it, rather than the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number DR173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15W pilot globe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSBC small bayonet cap base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric universal replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits holders that take an SBC globe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWattage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBase\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSBC small bayonet cap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the globe\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the appliance or fitting off at the wall and let the old globe cool before touching it.
