Hello,
Perhaps a daft question but can you use any old 15W SES bulb in a fridge or does it have to be a special one?
I know that ovens use a special bulb that will withstand 300 degrees C, presumably to stop something melting. Is there a similar "low temperature" bulb for fridges? After all, I would think that going from hot when illuminated to cold in the fridge would place additional strain on the bulb.
I ask because I saw a pair of 15W pygmy bulbs for £2 in a supermarket today and next to it one fridge bulb, which looked identical, for £2. Both made by GE. It seems silly to buy the fridge one at twice the price if it's the same as the "ordinary" bulbs.
Thanks.
