∙ 8y agoA couple quick questions first please ... why are you using a 12 volt lamp in a 6 volt system? Have you increased the system voltage? Simply replacing a 6 volt bulb with a 12 volt bulb will cause the 12 volt bulb to burn dim ... Some systems have electrical circuits that drop (decrease) the voltage to certain units (like lights). For instance, your car is a 12 volt system (actually 14 when alternator is operating) and that 12 volts can be reduced with resistors to supply only 6 of those volts to a light ... or other device. Simply replacing with a 12 volt lamp will cause it to burn dimmer. Sorry to answer with a question but, I am just curious ...

∙ 8y agoYou should use a 12-volt bulb that is compatible with the socket size and design of the T1133 bulb. Look for a direct replacement in 12 volts that fits the same specifications to ensure proper function and compatibility with your electrical system.
Yes, you can use a 10 watt 12 volt bulb instead of a 5 watt bulb as long as the fixture can handle the higher wattage. Just be aware that the 10 watt bulb will be brighter and may generate more heat, so ensure there is proper ventilation and that the fixture can handle the increased power load.
Choose a bulb with the same voltage as your fixture to prevent damage or risk of overheating. If the fixture specifies 120 volts, use a 120-volt bulb. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer's instructions or a professional electrician.
A 13.5 volt bulb will burn less brightly but last longer.
It is not recommended to replace a 120 volt bulb with a 135 volt bulb as it may lead to overheating and cause damage to the fixture or pose a safety hazard. It's best to use the correct voltage bulb specified for the fixture.
Using a 120 volt bulb in a 130 volt socket may cause the bulb to burn out more quickly or not function properly. The higher voltage from the socket can lead to a higher current flowing through the bulb, which can damage it or cause it to fail prematurely. It is always best to match the voltage of the bulb with the voltage of the socket for optimal performance and safety.
No.
It is not recommended to use a 120 volt bulb in a 130 volt socket as it can cause the bulb to burn out faster or even lead to safety hazards. It is important to match the voltage rating of the bulb with the socket for optimal performance and safety.

Yes if it is a 12 volt DC bulb.
A 13.5 volt bulb will burn less brightly but last longer.
Yes, the voltage listed on the bulb is the nominal voltage and it will work perfectly on a 120 volt circuit.
yes the bulb will actually last longer
Yes, you can use a 130 volt light bulb on a 120 volt supply. The light bulb will still work, but it may not shine as brightly or have as long a lifespan compared to when used on its rated voltage.
no , it will burn out
Yes, the two voltages are in the same range category.
