I removed the bad bulb today and discovered that when it 'popped', it blew off most of the interior white, frosted coating, which game me a view to the inner core That is pretty cool. I have been using the halogen A19 bulbs for a really long time. Getting to see inside is pretty cool. except when you get to see shoddy soldering jobs on the supports which cause them to fail. 11 minutes ago, Ksarul said: Well, Klingons are everywhere, so they are definitely in every single picture in the display. . .

+OLD CS1 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 @HOME AUTOMATION y tho? KO, huh? Yeah, that bulb put up a helluva fight. At least his halogen died an honorable death. Far too many of mine died from shitty solder joints holding the actual bulb in place. There seemed to be a rash of that around 2008 - 2010 for me. Not sure what brand I was buying at the time.
