Re: Crompton 60W bulb
It's not a 'Fire Glow' bulb, they were clear and agreed, seemed to be a dark orange rather than red.
If I remember correctly, some Fire Glow bulbs used a 3-pin BC base (two electrical contacts but three locating spigots sticking out the side of the base). Were they hotter and this was to stop them getting put within (paper) lampshades?
I remember having to change the bulb holders on a Great Aunt's Berry Magicoal fire when 3 spigots became hard to come by in the 1980s.
