Default Re: Vintage Christmas Tree lights

Ah yes the flasher. The set my parents had had one of these but it was rarely used as it became annoying after a while. It was red and was larger than the other bulbs and I'm sure you're right about it being a bimetal strip. I wonder if the constant on/off cycling would have shortened the bulb life.
