Micro-halogen globe replacement

I have one of those Cateye Micro-halogen lights that takes a 2.4W 4.8V
globe with two little pins on the end.

Sounds unusual. Look in the yellow pages for a lamp specialist.

earlier version I think of the Cateye HL500II, but looks
identical.

The globe burned out, so where the heck can one get a
replacement globe? I've tried bicycle shops, but so far, no
luck. Are these bulbs exclusive to Cateye such that you have to
throw out the light if the globe goes?

If all else fails, the GH158 from Reflectalite -
http://www.reflectalite.com/ - might be what you're looking for.

They're in the UK, but I've bought bulbs from them. They'll take
a personal cheque from an Aussie bank account in Aussie dollars.

You *may* need to get an LBS to order it in especially, but PJ White
are worth a call. They're an Adelaide lighting specialist. I can't
seen anything specific on their site, but that's not to say they don't
know of such a toy.

Otherwise try http://www.wiggle.co.uk/?ProductID=5300005603 , or give
Phantom a call (http://www.phantomcycles.com.au for details)

Dave - who has a new 5W light. Mmmm, Luxeony goodness.

There in Angus St. In a small (2-3) group of shops. Tucked around the
corner. Very helpful young woman in there🙂

I had great luck with phantom and an old cateye halogen globe. They did
however tell me they couldnt believe they had them though. They found them
in some old box. :-).
