Dspark,

My mention of light bulbs was just a tangent, I in no way was putting the blame on their use...

I was merely stating that I use 130V bulbs because 120V bulbs don't last long around here due to the higher than nominal voltages...

Many uncouth electrical contractors have used this to get entire rewire jobs... When only a bulb change was needed...

130's last 6 months whereas 120's last about 4 weeks... Well worth the difference in cost.

Pardon my digression, it's in my character!...
