Where can I find replacement bulbs that have a tapered end so they will slide all the way into the socket and fit the string of lights on my Xmas tree? It is a Noble fir purchased from Frontgate.

I'm having the same problem, can't find the tampered replacement bulbs for this type of miniature tree lights. Let me know if you find some!
Heavens to Betsy, I have the same problem! The bulb is longer than a mini-light string, and has a ridge (tapered shape) near the wires. It snaps into a plastic base with a "leg" that, when slid into the plastic base (the part that is wired to the tree), fits into a small hole.
I bought my tree in 2006 at American Sale in Illinois, and most of the bulbs are burned out. I have checked at the store, Ace Hardware (which sells the 3.5v bulbs that kinda fit, but are too powerful), and Menard's. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. A reverse image search on google was fruitless. Here is a snap of the two parts:
I have the same problem. We're late getting started with some of the indoor decorations for guest coming through this week but I noticed I have the a similar socket and the exact same kind of bulbs. I've been looking all over the internet and haven't found anything. Let me know if you find a manufacturer that at least sells the bulbs. I only have a few out and would like to replace them.
10 Pack 2.5v Slotted Base Clear Replacement Christmas Light Bulbs.....key word is "slotted". You can buy from Amazon.
DONT BUY LIGHTS WHEN IF ONE BURNS OUT THEN NONE OF THEM WORK....ITS A PAIN IN THE A**...........i'll never buy them again....i have 4 strands on my tree, 1st one works but the 2nd doesnt, then 3rd one works but 4th one doesnt......makes no sense to me
