Any one know who you can buy the motors for the Miller-Meteor Ful-Vu / Grimes Lights? I tried looking up Badder-Brown,it states Honeywell owns them. I want to buy 4. Any help would be appreciated.

I know that this is an extremely long shot, but didn't these used to be the same or similar to the lights that were on some aircraft back in the day? If so maybe a call to your local aviation museum might provide some leads on replacement parts.
 
Aircraft lights are 28 volts. The lens for these is still a stock listed NSN (National Stock Number) current gov price is over $600 dollars. These will probably show up some day in a Gov auction at pennies on the dollar.
 
That's very true. But does anyone know where to get the motors? I'd also like to buy some Bulbs
Bulb info, GRIMES A-7079B-12 14 V 40W 36 2
 
The only thing that the Ful Vue lights have in common with the aircraft lights is the lens and the bulbs. Most aircraft are 28 volts and the Ful Vue lights used a 14 volt bulb also made by Grimes Aerospace. I have some NOS red lenses for sale.
 
I know this is probably no help, but I have the bulbs, 12VDC (or 14VDC), that go in the lights. And, yes, these were on the bottom of aircraft. That is where I got the bulbs, at an aircraft supply around the Cincinnati, Oh, Lunken Airport, but I can't recall the name of the company.

Paul, you say you have some NOS red lenses for sale?? I am looking to have a spare lens (or 2). Would you care to take this offline to email?

I know this is probably no help, but I have some 12VDC (14VDC) bulbs for those lights. Yes, to confirm, those types of lights were on aircraft. I still see a lot of older planes with those lights operating. I bought the bulbs from a local aircraft supply place around the Cincinnati, Oh, Lunken Airport. I can't recall the name of the place. I agree that an aircraft supply would be your best bet.
