If the generator voltage fell to something like 11V that would just put something like 1.5V across the lamp. I don't think that would show up, even at night. I know the 12V bulbs glow yellow and dim with 6V across them, but I don't think even 3V would show up thru the filter of the instrument face. Just guessing here, I've not tried it. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
