Grote 73150-5 Back-Up Light Halogen Bulb

This Grote 73150-5 halogen bulb functions as a back-up light with an audible beeping alert for RVs and automotive applications. It mounts via a surface installation and features a clear lens housed in plastic. The unit draws 1.67 A of current and has an overall height of 7/8 in with a depth of 1 1/2 in.

Installers needing audible reverse warning

This bulb suits RV owners and fleet managers who want an integrated audible warning when the vehicle shifts into reverse. It is not for buyers who need a silent replacement bulb or those requiring a sealed unit with a specific IP rating for harsh environment exposure. The surface mount style also limits use in recessed housing applications.

Deciding specification: 1.67 A current draw

The 1.67 A current draw determines electrical compatibility with the vehicle's reverse light circuit and fuse capacity. Verify the circuit can support this amperage before installation to prevent blown fuses or wiring issues. This single electrical figure confirms whether the bulb matches the existing system requirements.

Questions about this item

What current draw should I expect from the Grote 73150-5 beeping halogen bulb during continuous operation?

The bulb draws 1.67 A when the backup lamp is illuminated, so the circuit and fuse must handle that load without tripping.

How much heat and noise does the 7/8 in Grote 73150-5 produce when it runs all day?

The halogen filament generates noticeable heat during extended use, while the integrated beeper emits an audible alert each time reverse gear is engaged.

Which electrical connection must already be on the vehicle for the Grote 73150-5 to install and function?

A surface-mount backup lamp socket that accepts a 7/8 in halogen bulb is required; the unit plugs directly into that existing fitting.
