Default I'm looking for the little buttons that you install

In article , says...

I never did understand the 130 volt rated bulbs. I don't know of any
130 volt services in the US.


*It's like running a 120V bulb on 110 volts, it has an extended life.




I am well aware that reducing the voltage slightly will extend the life
of filament bulbs, but as far as I know there is no 130 volt service in
the US, so why mark the bulbs as 130 volts ? Just mark them as extended
life or something like that.
