What bulb do you use for 12 volt instead of a t1133 6 volt bulb?

A couple quick questions first please ... why are you using a 12 volt lamp in a 6 volt system? Have you increased the system voltage? Simply replacing a 6 volt bulb with a 12 volt bulb will cause the 12 volt bulb to burn dim ... Some systems have electrical circuits that drop (decrease) the voltage to certain units (like lights). For instance, your car is a 12 volt system (actually 14 when alternator is operating) and that 12 volts can be reduced with resistors to supply only 6 of those volts to a light ... or other device. Simply replacing with a 12 volt lamp will cause it to burn dimmer. Sorry to answer with a question but, I am just curious ...

How do you know whether to get 120 volt or 130 volt light bulb?
If you want your bulbs to last longer then use 130 volt bulb on a 120 volt system. The light emitted by a 130 volt bulb, when comparing it to a 120 volt bulb, will be a bit dimmer.
Can you use a 13.5 volt light bulb in place of a 12 volt Will it be burn as bright?
A 13.5 volt bulb will burn less brightly but last longer.
What happens if you use a 120 Volt bulb where a 130 volt socket?
If your supply voltage is 120 volts the impact of switching from a 145 volt lamp to a 130 volt lamp would be, the 130 volt bulb would not have the same lifetime as a lamp operating on 145 volts. The upside would be that the light output would be greater. This is based on both of the lamps having the same wattage rating.
Can i use 240 volt 50 watt instead of 240volt 35 watt bulbs?
That depends on the wiring, the light socket, switch(es) and any other equipment in the circuit. You should never use a bulb that is larger than the original circuit was designed for.
How do you convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt?
All you have to do is change the bulbs to 12 volts and supply the trailer with a 12 volt power source. If you leave the original 24 volt bulb in the trailer they will only glow at 1/2 of their rated wattage.
Can you use a 12 volt bulb instead of a 220 volt?
No.

Can you use a 12 volt automotive bulb in a 24 volt application?
no
Can you use car bulb 60watt on 12 volt 7.2 amp battery?
Yes if it is a 12 volt DC bulb.
Can you use a 13.5 volt light bulb in place of a 12 volt Will it be burn as bright?
A 13.5 volt bulb will burn less brightly but last longer.
Can you use a 125 volt bulb in a 120 volt lamp?
Yes, the voltage listed on the bulb is the nominal voltage and it will work perfectly on a 120 volt circuit.
Can you use a 130 volt 60 watt bulb in a socket that was made for a 110 volt 60 watt bulb?
yes the bulb will actually last longer
Can you use a 120 volt - 500 watt bulb in a 220 volt lamp?
no , it will burn out
Can you use a 120 volt halogen bulb in place of a 110 volt halogen bulb?
Yes, the two voltages are in the same range category.
Can you use a 130 volt light bulb on a 120 volt supply?
Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.
Can you use a 130 volt light bulb in a 120 volt socket?
Yes, the 130 volts you read on the bulb is just the maximum it will handle. It will work perfectly in a 120 volt circuit.
