Can someone identify this bulb

[gpeade]

Well as the title says, can someone identify this bulb? It goes in a small light over my dinette. Its not the typical "camper" lights like you find in the ceiling. It more like a under cabinet style residential light. There are two of these above the table and neither bulb has anything written on it. I would think I could find it somewhere other than a camping supply or dealership but have not thus far.

All I can say that it appears to be a bi-pin halogen and there are all different types, size of the pins, distance between the pins, etc. If you have a Radio Shack or something comparable near you bring it into them, they will be able to identify it rather quickly.

They are G8 bulbs, I was able to replace mine with G4 led bulbs on amazon

You might want to take the opportunity to go with an LED replacement:

Looks a LOT like the small halogen bulb I had to replace on the bottom of my microwave oven. You turn this on to light up the top of your stove. Take the one you have, head to the local hardware store (Lowe's or Home Depot) and compare it with those appliance light bulbs. I bet it's under $10.

Mine came with that bulb. It’s a 12v G4. I replaced all of mine to LEDs. The oe Halogen bulbs were pretty hot and used lot more current (battery life) than the LEDs. I bought enough to replace them all in my overhead lights.
If you want to replace it they can be purchased in most any big box store in the landscape lighting. They come in different wattages. All G4.

I had 2 sizes in my 5th, I recall they were 10w and 20w and I think both were G4 bases. Like Magnolia I replaced them with LED’s just like the one he pic’d. I found replacements that matched the brightness pretty well and had a good color on eBay. My notes say the 10w bulbs were 160 lumens, I don’t have notes on the brighter ones but I googled just now and found 350 lumens. I prefer a color around 3000K which seems pretty close to the halogen bulbs (not too picky, just don’t like the blueish ones).
