Re: The lightbulb conspiracy
Reading posts #63 to 66, I am reminded of the well-known effect of filament migration experienced with tungsten filaments operating on D.C. supplies in a vacuum, where tungsten filament particles migrate to the + end of the incandescent filament. I wonder, does halogen suppress this action?
Also BTW, I remember some company often advertising in the Daily Express in the early fifties(?) a "Long life" light bulb with a rating of, I think, 100w, with a claimed life of 2000 hours.
They probably sold well, as the ads ran for several years, as I recall. Tony.
