CEC will likely be disappointed. After trying to source some discontinued specialty lamps, I've concluded that unless you're ordering 100k units, there is no financial incentive for anyone to tool up and make them, and it would be a one-time-only run.Looking for GE 4416R 12VDC Sealed Beam in a case of 12.
CEC wants a minimum order of 1,200 pcs and a 6 month lead time.
Yep, you got it. A friend of mine is restoring an old fire engine. It has a 4-Lamp Sealed Beam Rotating Beacon that's over 50 yrs old and 3/4 Lamps are INOP(Filament failure).
Similar lamps are probably still in manufacture for aircraft landing lights, which you might look into; voltage might be a problem, though--for a 4 lamp display fixture--both that and size are likely less important...Yep, you got it.

The other OEM uses I've seen are old disco helicopter fixtures or single PAR36 fixed or oscillating fixtures.
FWIW, Its interesting to see that the new common LED-PAR36 replacement is not anything close to a original Sealed Beam (Spot Beam).
The new LED replacement is more like a modified-flood beam spread which changes the whole performance of the fixture.
