Commercial Lamp Supplies NewsNew Size LightbulbsPosted on February 24, 2009 @ 12:42 pmWe have been sending out the first lot of 100 watt bulbs but some people have still not been happy as they are now made in a smaller size. Normal bulbs arent usually our best seller (people tend to pop into their local shop to get them - we mostly sell the low energy equivalents) so we didnt realise that people didnt know that the big manufacturers such as Philips and GE have changed the bulb size. They have made the bulbs smaller by 10 millimeters which doesnt sound very much but it looks quite different The smaller bulbs put out the same amount of light but take less ’stuff’ to make so are less wasteful (and lets face it cheaper for the manufacturers!) The problem with them is the older style lamp shades that clip onto the bulb dont always work with them very well. If you specifically want the older size lamps then please put a note in the shipping info and we will oblige but please be aware this may result in a delay in your order as we can only get these from certain manufacturers so dont always have them in stock. (we cannot even place orders for the larger size 100 watt lamps at the moment so if you would like them please be aware we cannot give a definate delivery time) Leave a Reply |
