The KPR112 Bulb

[scuzzy]

You guys talk about $1.5 kpr112... from where? cheapest I found is 15 bucks and radioshack says they are out...

Walmart has, or did, have a Rayovac KPR112 last time I was in. Just look for the bulbs listed for 4 cell lights or 6 volt lanterns.

KPR112s are pretty common. Radioshack should have them. The hard to find RS bulb is the Xenon XPR103.

The RS's by me have a set of light bulb drawers. Some RS have more drawers than others. More drawers = wider selection of bulbs to choose from, so the mgr at my nearest sent me to the next one down the road where I got my bulb fix. Some store people might not know this so it may help to ask/call around first.

The KPR112 is pretty common and in my local RS they go for 1.3$. The XPR103 which seems to be rare (I got the last three from the store) is in the old Radioshack packaging with green/gray colors (it even mentions that RS is a Tandy division) and the packaging is kinda longer than the common RS bulbs so dont always rely it will be on the lamp drawers. My XPR's were hanged right next to the official maglite replacement bulbs.

Oh, and my XPR's didnt even showed up on their inventory and they had no pricetag on the hanger so the guy told me "just give me one buck for each"!..

So check, check and recheck the whole store..

Go to their website, and if they're out they should be able to transfer them from another store.
