The Creech that just keeps on giving!

Long shot. I think they were use in TZ too.
Wedge Base Socket - Sub-Miniature 24-8830

Some available in the US but they want £50 shipping.

Cheaper to fly and get them!
TIA

I was missing one on my Creech. In the end I just got a standard mini bulb holder from somewhere (Andy or Phil I think) and then soldered on two bits of wire snipped from a resistor at right angles to make it fit perfectly. It’s indistinguishable from the real thing unless you look really closely. Cost almost nothing.

If you want a pic when I am back in the U.K. next week let me know!

That would be great to see the workaround.
 
We got some..!!!..(used of course as these have been unobtainable for yonks)...are yours brown or black?.......I will check how many....and edit when I find them!....k

Hi Keith

My CFTBL has black. Just the one please Keith.
Hopefully it will work. Looking on Pinside and a guy had a missing one because it messed up the chase sequence and had to replace the chase controller board.

Thanks
