****** off with light bulbs

[barnsey]

At the risk of getting back to incandescant bulb applications - The low wattage powersavers are okay but I'm not convined they are always as long lasting as claimed.

True incandescent globes come in two grades - the ordinary ones, from Bunnies - not bad value but they are not much good in applications where there may be some bumping such as in the power light in the garage or table/standard lamps where the may well be some shock. The best in this application have an additional specification "RC" which stands for reinforced coil. They are designed for this heavier duty.

Yep, no problem. Err... might need a little de-lousing before I take any pics though...

And some rust removal. Seems swarf likes to stick to me.

Toilet too? That's the one thing that really should be used in Oz, must save hundreds of litres of clean water every year.

Even so, they still seem to have water problems around here. What do they expect when one good rain fills the main reservoir, and a week later it's 3/4 empty???

And yep, that's the toilet.

Except now, they will wash and blow dry your exhaust pipe for you, all in heated-seat comfort. We don't have one here, but it's an interesting concept...

Ive tried one of those high tech Totos at a students house once......hated the thing. Whats wrong with having a good old fashioned cr*p without all the high tech gadgetry???

Mind you the heated toilet seats are nice when you plonk your b*m on a toilet in the middle of a Sapporo winter.
