Can I replace an ordinary light bulb in my Janome machines with a LED bulb?

I have four great Janome sewing machines, overlocker and embroidery machine but they allkeep blowing bulbs- one every three to four weeks. My husband suggests that we should look at replacing the bulb withu LED bulbs as they are not affected by heat or vibration and should not blow. The problem is that I know very little about LED bulbs and I just want to know is it OK tosimply swap the bulbs over or is there something else I have to do inside my machine? Thank you, June

    I followed the advice of Messrs Gallant and Ellis and looked around for a LED bulb. I found some on ebay and have ordered six - for just in case! The bulb is a BA15D LED 64 and is the same size as the one currently in my machines. Thanks again.

Certainly, you can use LED bulbs assuming you can find the right one for your machine. I found some on eBay for my Berninas and the light is great!!! So much brighter than the old yellow bulbs.

Tengo problemas con maquina de bordar janome mb4, me distorciona el bordado. I have problems with mb4 janome embroidery machine, embroidery distorts.

If your embroidery is distorted be sure you are using the right stabilizer for the fabric you are doing the embroidery on and enough for the density of the design.

I hope that helps.

Why wont my overlock cut

probably because the blades are blunt and out of adjustment. They are only mechanical scissors that rub each other and like ordinary scissor they become blunt. Most shops the sell or service overlockers will have replacement blades for your machine.

I find my janome overlock machine is very slow ,i would like to know how to increase its speed

There is no speed seperate control on overlockers other than the foot control but most sew at 1500 stitches per minute, very fast compared to sewing machines.

What is your stitch length set to as this could be the problem. For normal four thread stretch seam you would want the length set to beween 2 and 3 so double check this - the length knob is usually a knob on the right side near the flywheel.

Hopefully, the above solves the problem for you but if not, please message again.

I am interested in buying a Janome 525 but want to know if it has a built in overlocker

A sewing machine and an overlocker are two completly different things, but a sewing machine is usually able to do a cover stitch. An overlocker will cut the fabric at the same time, a sewing machine cannot do this.

I want to sell my 1991 New Home memory Craft 8000 sewing machine

A good place to see what machines are selling for is Ebay. That's where I sold a sewing machine and an embroidery machine.

It helps to know your product and machine embroidery lingo.

What are cassettes? Floppy disks? These make the machine borderline obsolete.

Memory cards are still around, but most EM now have USB connectivity or USB flash drives.

Satin thread? Embroidery machines use Rayon or Polyester embroidery thread.

Having had the machine recently serviced is also a plus.
