Wattage, bulb type, etc for R25

Is there any factory documentation that provides a definitive list of all the light bulbs with a description of their brand, type and wattage ? Thanks.... 🙂

There should be, since they sell navigation light and cabin light bulbs....

Thanks -- that got me closer to what I wanted. However, if I'm to obtain these bulbs from a source other than factory I'd like to know brand, type, wattage without me having to unscrew and remove every bulb on the boat to find out this info the hard way. The provided list does not describe these things.

These two links will tell you more than you probably want to know about the two bulb types found on the R25.

This is the bulb I am using to replace the incandescents on Levitation( which are FESTOON style bulbs) - the mast light and the running lights, and also the bathroom light...... It is markedly brighter than the incandescent bulb and draws one third of the current...Yes it is the price of 3 incandescent bulbs - but will outlast a hundred of them...
After having to cancel our 4th of July fireworks cruise because the shiny, spanking new, just installed, mast light bulb lasted all of 90 seconds (lessee, $10 per 90 seconds is how much an hour?) I immediately said I am not going through that again...
If you buy from another source be sure that the Festoon bulb you get is the "dimpled" end variety, not the one with spikes...
A FESTOON style bulb looks like a small Buss fuse...

For the running lights, I recommend that you line the backside of the light housing with aluminum foil (contact cement), which increases light output tremendously...
Use silicone grease from the auto store (for spark plug boots) to generously coat the bulb contacts and the brass fingers in the lamp housing to prevent corrosion as it will be a long, long, time before you have to open the housing again... Lacking that, I would at least use petroleum jelly...

I haven't gotten to sourcing an LED bulb for the interior cabin and chart lights yet, but I will...

Note that the proper end style (DIMPLED) is the bulb at the bottom of the page not at the top...

Just a note from a vintage-2007 R21-EC owner who sheared off the mast-head light while trailering. It might be relevant to other models if they use Aqua Signal Series 25 lights.

The current-production Aqua Signal Series 25 masthead light which I just purchased uses a pointed format bulb. I hoped I would at least have a spare bulb since the dimpled bulb survived the tree branch, but no joy there. Of course, I can change the bulb by changing all the brackets in the lamp, but that would be a real bugger if afloat. (I dropped parts in my stationary driveway while replacing the lamp!) I guess I have to buy another pointed bulb for a change-while-afloat spare.

A good source for LED replacement bulbs is at http://www.sailorssolutions.com .

Wondering if anyone has found a replacement LED bulb of proper size for the cabin lights on the R25?

Mike and Judy,
We used the following site to replace all of the interior lights on Karma. These are the same as what they use on the R-25: http://store.marinebeam.com/44360defeled.html
