Title: 1992 universal (y92) top fluoresent light size??
Post by: David J on September 18, 2016, 01:41:07 PM

I just picked up 2  1992 universal  (y92) slots machine and both the top fluoresent bulbs in both the machines are missing they look like t8 size sockets but the only measure 13 and 3/4 inches and I assume that would have been a 14" bulb but I can't find that length bulb  anywhere. am I mistaken or was this a special bulb for these. Thanks any help would be great.

i have a ini, not sire what model. it takes a F8 T5 , 12 inch under cabinet bulb. its a skinny little thing. thats in the top, not sure what the bottom is, havent had to replace it.  bought it on line, no stores carried it. maybe a good electrical supply might, no home depot though.

Thank you puckhead for your reply, I did see the small 12" fluoresent bulb I think you're  referring to its is the one that is in the door under the reels for the reel glass on my machine. the ones that I'm having  a hard time figuring out is the top payout glass, it has a holder that takes two bulbs both were missing when I got the machine, the distance between the two sockets are 13 and 3/4 inches I have checked online and so far have not been able to find a 14" t8 fluoresent bulb I wouldn't think that would be a special bulb but who knows.  Thank you again

Also, Amazon.com has several of the F10T8CW bulbs listed, I think this one is about 13 inches length.
