Additional Notes

The 1895 is an ANSI-standardized bulb used in the United States and Canada, classified as a miniature wedge type with a T5 tubular form factor.
The 1895 bulb operates at 12 volts with a power draw of 0.9 watts, placing it at the low end of the wattage range typical for interior dome lighting applications.
The wedge base design of the 1895 means the bulb is held in place by tension from the socket contacts rather than by a bayonet or screw mechanism, which is a common trait in small interior lighting sockets.
The Renault R17 used the 1895 bulb for its dome light across all model years from 1972-1979, reflecting an unchanged socket specification throughout the entire production run covered by these records.
