    Replacing Brinkmann Bulb

    I was wondering if anyone else here has had to replace one of the bulbs in their brinkmann light or not. The bottom light on mine went out. I was able to TO the light bulb (by removing the plastic housing and then taking out the glass/gasket etc) but im not quite sure how to actually take the bulb out. Also where can i get a replacement? I THINK HD sells em but not totally sure.

    thanks guys.

    I'm sure you know this and my practice, also, is to: I always wear lint-free or latex gloves when replacing any type of bulb(s).

    Unhappy Re: Replacing Brinkmann Bulb

    At least you can replace the bulbs. Once the battery pukes you have to throw it away or custom make a battery pack.


    My battery won't take a charge anymore.

    Two years tops. It was only used in the summer months, as I don't do too many details in the winter.

    Nice light, but too bad it is manufactured to be disposable.
