Are the lamps in the osram set the originals ?
They appear to be solid coloured lamps like many others, whereas Osram used to sell TRANSPARENT coloured lamps. I considered these to be superior in appearance, they looked as though made of coloured glass, but were in fact lacquered.
I think that I still have some !

Are 20 volt 3 watt Christmas lamps still manufactured ? they are widely sold on ebay but I dont know if this is old stock being used up, or if they are still made.
