What bulb fits?
-
D4 came over last week with a burnt-out lightbulb from SIL's office. She asked what kind of bulb to get, since it wasn't a standard socket.
I looked at it, and saw that it was like the bulbs we have in our China cabinet, and sure enough, her burnt-out bulb fit the socket.
So, I ordered a set of these for her:
Last night she texted and said that the bulbs don't fit and sent me a pic of the socket.
Here is the actual bulb:
And here are the inscriptions on the base:

Good eye! One that was not on the chart I found.

I think that E-number is the UL file identification number. It might not relate to the size of the fitting.

Now you have to buy a lamp to fit the bulbs.
Nah - Amazon return!
Top is what she needed and bottom is what I ordered. D'Oh!
No, no, no! You cannot blame D'oh for this. He may not even know how to change a light bulb. We should ask him.
