Any bulb supplier, Just get the number off the bulb. Bulbman (you can search it) has the best prices, I buy them regularly myself.


Will replacing to bulb on a 1 area stinger bug zapper make it start zapping again light comes on but does not zap at all?

No, it sounds as if the transformer is out. The transformer provides the zap. If your light was wired to that directly you would not be getting light. Perhaps, an electical fire but no ultraviolet light. I would not be suprised if the brand you have is a Stinger. If it is, junk it, and go buy from Sears. They sell Flowtrons.

Make sure you have it connected properly. If you do, then it's just the bulb. Return your new bulb for a different one. This happened to me once.

Can the transformer on a stinger bug zapper be replaced?

Yes--the transformer can be replaced--However, as far as I can learn, the replacement part is only available thru the manufacturer, and the part would cost almost as much as a new, complete bug zapper--SO-O-O-O---it would seem that these are basically a "disposable" item--if anything goes wrong with it, other than the bulb--it's gonna be best to just toss it and get a new one--cost is about $45.00 on some very good models--mine was the 1-acre of coverage model, and that thing ran for days in "ON" mode, and lasted for years--

How does a three bulb circuit compare with the current when two bulbs are bypassed by a short circuit?

The current of one bulb (two bulbs shorted) would be about1 three times the current of three bulbs.1 I say "about" because resistance is a function of temperature, and running three times the current through one bulb will make that one bulb much hotter, increasing its resistance. It might also burn out the bulb.
