ECN Forum Forums Photo Discussion Forums Electrical Nostalgia How long do your Bulbs last?

>>Am I crazy or has anyone else ever seen anything like this? An "Edison" bulb of sorts. Any info appreciated.

Soundtech, these are available as Carbon Filament bulbs, check out: http://www.rejuvenation.com/fixshowMRB2/templates/selection.phtml

Only $14/bulb!, and they use 40W to give off 10W of light. Probably not the best for housewide lighting, unless you have cheap power!

Hey those are cool, neat find.

Thanks for the bulb web site. that is great.

Thanks!

The fact that incandescent bulbs last longer at lower voltages is why I turn down the dashboard illumination on my cars.

Those bulbs are somewhat of a pain to replace if they blow

Newer cars use LEDs so I suppose it doesn't matter as much anymore.
