Hi,
Do you have a Graflite 2773 battery case? The usual thing I do is load it up with its 3 "D" batteries & connect the focuspot cord in the "BATTERY" outlet which is dead-center on the front top of the battery case. The 4.5 volts is what powers the thing this way, although I don't think it requires that much.

Bruce, the focuspot instructions say to use a "Mazda #13" bulb, rated at 3.8 volts.

The Graflite Jr. tube will work if it has a hot battery outlet. I don't remember whether it does or not.
