Dan Pace here, I called about some lamps that as it turned out were obsolete. Jose Cruz went far above and beyond to locate a handful of these so I could get my project back on track! His efforts are MUCH APPRECIATED. I re-lamp a lot of automotive switches, radios, etc. and JKL lamps is my go-to site when ordering parts.

I've been building with JKL for years now. If you need high quality lighting for your project this place will be your go to. Everyone that sees the results in person will understand that florescent lighting has special characteristics that are unlike incandescent or LED. I recommend starting with a single tube and ballast with a PHC power supply. My customers are always blown away with these miniature systems.

I had issue with a JKL strip light purchased through a third party. The service and support I received from JKL was first class. The issue was promptly resolved. I recommend buying direct via the jkllamps.com web site.

I was needing lamps for my vintage Sony tuner/amplifier. The instrument bulbs were burnt out and black. I had no idea what the voltage or wattage was. I called JKL and talked to Jose Cruz. All I could give him was bulb dimensions and the voltage I could get with a multimeter from the output of the transformer. The bulbs were soldered to the supply wires. Jose found the voltage I needed and the style of bulb that would give me the best install. Hats off to Jose for his knowledge and really going above and beyond what I expected! Thanks Jose.

Was looking for a bulb for my vintage Yamaha RX-730 receiver and found JKL, Jose C., in my surfing. He understood my need immediately and searched his inventory for a match. In a few days, I had a new bulb and now my receiver is back in action. Please look to Jose at JKL if looking for vintage parts!
