I'm having a senior moment (I'm entitled, 12 days to the big 7-0)...

Is a Light Bulb "Medium Base" a _standard_ ordinary, everyday light
bulb base?


Finally found a "specification"...

"Medium", aka E26, is 26mm base thread diameter

Had some weird 11W small bulb standard-looking base thread in the BBQ
lighting.

Found only "medium" base listings... which apparently, in the USA, is
also called "standard" and "Edison".

Edison who? You mean the guy that FAILED 1000 times?
