    Can someone help me wire this light up?

    Well I pulled the bulb and hooked that up seperate and its still bright as crap on 6V. Pulled the two tiny ones off and hooked them up to 6V and they were dim (see the crappy pic). That leads me to assume that the lil ones are actually the main ones that prob stay on all the time and the big one...

    Can someone help me wire this light up?

    Well I eventually want this to go in a vehicle so it'll run on a 12V system but im not sure about how that'll work on a 28V piece (forgot to mention that). What about a step up transformer (cant remember if thatll work Elctronics class was so long ago lol)?

    Can someone help me wire this light up?

    Well that clamp is for batteries and ive hooked 6Vs to it and got it lit but I think that the batterys are a secondary source. These were used in military aircraft so that would be for incase of a wreck. I'll get a pic tonight of the back part.

    Whats a WWII Battle Lantern worth?

    If by hardware you mean the screws then I have them I just didnt put them back in when I took the pic. Ive seen the LED upgrade but I can't find a bulb that will fit but I might just make a bulb myself using warm light LEDs so it still looks correct. It also has the jumper wire for the batterys...
