Problem sorted and I don't need to pull out 20 bulbs to test with the
meter only to discover it's the last one that is class F.


On a string of 20 bulbs you shouldn't need to take more than 11
resistance readings.


Binary search. yes I know, but that would have meant going home and
back again for the meter.

It was you that mentioned a meter in the first place. :-)
