Hi, hope somebody can help; I have a Baumatic cooker hood and one of the light bulbs has just blown. I've traipsed all over Sheffield - DIY shops, lighting shops etc looking for a replacement and I've tried various lighting websites and eBay with no luck.
It's an E14 size screw fitting and looks just like one of these:

...except it's 230V and 50W (not an LED bulb like the one in the link).
I've no idea if it's a special type of bulb for kitchen appliances or what... can anyone point me in the right direction please? Thanks!

230V bulbs are fine for a240v UK system its just the correct wattage you want. I got mine form Morrionsons for a cooker the other week, think it was £2.50ish0

They tend to be known as SES fittings (small edison screw
) rather than E14 (which is the 14mm screw diameter) - so that may have affected your 'net search.
Looks like it fits as a 'downlighter' rather than just sitting behind a glass panel. Had to replace both mine (CDA) with low energy bulbs as the standard oven bulbs blow regularly - and take the fuse / consumer unit out quite frequently. But may not be an option for you if it's a dedicated and (cone)shaped fitting?
This looks about right - but notice it's 40w - and see the text about 50w unbranded ones :-

There's a couple of others here :-

... which are 'downlighter' style. But both are 40w or (the low energy one)thereabouts.If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !0
