Coin Door Light Question

[Josh]

I want to hook up my Happ coin door lights up to my computer's power supply 12V

The lights that are installed are C161.  They are 14V lights with a wedge base.  Will these work fine on 12V or is there a better choice of lightbulb that will fit these holders?


Thanks for all the help

I have used the 12 volts from my PC PSU and they work just fine. The extra 2 volts wouldn't make a noticable difference, infact the globes would probably last a little longer on 12 volts

I used 161 14v bulbs with no problems. Here's the article and video:
