I bought two of these at Maplins, at 80% off. I now realise I'm not
sure what they are for. The last time I went to a 'proper' electrical
wholesaler, he told me different bulbs are needed for oven and fridge.
Does anyone know?


Oven lamps are high temperature (300C), and usually 25W or 40W.
Fridge are usually 15W (although I would use an LED nowadays).
Lots of different proprietary lamp bases for microwaves.

None of us have a clue what you bought.
