In Reply to: 9 volt lamps work fine posted by danj on January 21, 2010 at 19:52:00:
I used to work at a job producing X-ray film. We had to use a small green LED flashlight so as not to expose the film during production.
I found that rubbing the base of the lamp contact on my jeans prior to insertion in the flashlight would allow it to produce a slightly brighter light.
Try this when using a higher voltage lamp in a low voltage application to allow it to emit maximum light.
