The GE 157 is an incandescent miniature bulb engineered for indicator, instrument panel, and specialty low-voltage applications where precise electrical specifications and compact dimensions are essential. This incandescent lamp operates at 5.8V and 6.38W, drawing 1.1 amps through a C-2R filament construction that delivers 8.1 mean spherical candle power (MSCP) of omnidirectional light output across a full 360-degree viewing angle.

The G6 globe bulb shape measures 1.22 inches in maximum overall length and 0.75 inches in maximum outer diameter, making it well suited for tight-fitting sockets in control panels, dashboards, automotive assemblies, appliances, and scientific or medical instruments. The Miniature Screw (E10) base provides secure, reliable contact and straightforward installation in compatible E10 sockets.

As a clear incandescent lamp, the 157 produces a warm, natural light tone. The rated average life is 50 hours, consistent with the high-current, low-voltage operating conditions typical of this incandescent miniature lamp class. Voltage matching is critical for miniature lamps of this type — the socket supply must be 5.8V to achieve rated performance and life. This GE incandescent miniature bulb is sold individually and is available in case quantities of 10 units.
