I ordered mine from here http://www.bulbdirect.com/NewSite/index.asp
I do not know if they have any thing in a 9.5 volt, but its worth looking.

Only 12 volt.
For what kind of light are they for?

All dive lights that used 8C or 8D based rechargables, use a 9.6v bulb. That is why a UK D8R bulb cannot be used with Alkaline batteries as it is rated for 9.6v not 12v. (NiCAD and NiMH batteries are rated at 1.2v not 1.5v, 1.2v x 8 is 9.6v). The 12v bulbs do work, but the original equipment was 9.6v.

I am looking for the 9.6v 50watt and 9.6v 100watt for a UK Aquasun 800 video light. I have found the 9.6v 30w bulbs for the UK 1000R as it is the same as the UK D8R bulb.
