Default Need a 12v bulb for 120v night light

Have a Marine transferring and his daughter found a night light she likes. It is a normal 120 volt wall socket outlet plug in and has the normal small night light bulb. Can anyone tell me where I can get a 12 volt version of those bulbs? Not familiar with the RV market. Thanks!

If it has a typical wall plug, isn't it going to get 120v one way or another? Either straight A/C or from the batteries through an inverter?

Bobby, A bit confused here. R/V wall plugs that look like household stuff are 110, either off the generator or shore power.
Interior lighting is 12 v and look like automotive bulbs..They can be replaced with LED bulbs for longer life and less current draw off the coach battery, or alternator, when traveling.

I'm going by what they told me, I agree I thought all the outlets were 120V, will verify.
Thanks.
