If you are the owner of a old U.K. Light, ex. UK1200, 1200R, 600 series, etc.
U.K. no longer offers bulbs for these still working and durable lights. When I called they advised me they no longer offered the bulbs, nor would they give me a non-U.K. number so I could find a source, the answer I got was I should buy a new light. However I contacted http://www.topbulb.com/ and they advised me to send them the old bulb, and if a bulb was still made or a compatable bulb could be found they could do it.
To end a long story, I now have 3 spare bulbs, and a working UK1200 for less than $10.00.  Thanks to Top bulb, I don't have a UK1200 paperweight for my desk.

O.K. ran into a problem with the bulbs I got, they appear to only last approx. 2 hours max. of burn time before they fail. I am working on the problem with TB, and once we find the right bulb I'll post the bulb number here and you can order them.

I do have original bulbs for the orginal Mini-Aquasun in stock, if anybody needs one. (5 left $8.50ea. includes postage)
