Yes, the best way is to see when it just lights up and then measure
the fraction of a turn to where it stops going further, then back off
halfway. Europeans say 1/3 of the way, but that's because they use
the stupid metric system (220 volts) as opposed to the imperial
system (110 volts).


Hi,
Stupid(?) Metric system has better efficiency. Korea converted to 220V
some time ago. They have surplus power, utility company is asking
people to use more power.

I am sorry, but you are an idiot.

Aren't you the same guy who was insisting that light bulbs have
significant inductance at 60Hz?

Hi,
I am sorry, you must be one too. Like kinds always recognize same.
Where is this word significant coming from? Reread my posts.
