I have never had to replace an original floresent Bulb on my Vendo 56 square top.  What is the size  and where can you get them?  They don't look like any standard size.  Can anyone help?

I think they are just standard 4W bulbs available at Home Depot and probably the grocery store.

Standard flourescaent bulbs just need to match the length. Usually have readable markings near both ends that state length, wattage and type (regular or skinny). Pop it out and bring it with you...  Most are 15 or 20W.  But, I've seen several different lengths.

Sorry, missed that flourescent word. The VMC 56 I had used a small 4W bulb at the top of the Vend door compartment.
