Oshino Lamps was founded in Tokyo, Japan in 1931 by Masashi Oshino, a pioneering engineer in the early design/development of incandescent filament lamp technology. His designs and subsequent products were used in bicycle lamps and Christmas tree lighting. Today we are a leading supplier of sub-miniature lamps to the US/Asian/European aerospace and automotive industries. We hold Cage Code No S3774 and will certify lamps, where applicable, to US Military Standards and specifications and other international norms such as DIN, IEC and JIS. Our “OL” trademark has therefore become synonymous with dependability, high quality and reliability.
