Re my earlier post, #101, the supplier sells B22 mains voltage neon lamps that are hard to find elsewhere. An odd size, smaller than a GLS lamp but larger than a golf ball type and much larger than a pigmy lamp.

They also sell a rare type of 8 segment display in which each segment consists of an incandescent filament. Much brighter than first generation LED displays. Obsolete now of course.

And several types of miniature CRT.
