Indeed, almost certainly 0.15 amp badly printed or misread as 15 amp.

BTW, E10 lamps are available up to at least 100 watts, though very uncommon. 28 volt, 75 watt E10 lamps are relatively common, and 100 volt 100 watt versions certainly used to exist and probably still do, but were never common.
Japanese presumably as they are the only major country with 100 volt mains.
