Hi...
Perhaps a little off-topic, but I'll fix that up at the end :)
Have a clothes drier (two, actually) with those anti-bacterial bulbs
in them. Both burned out. They look like old fashioned Christmas tree
bulbs, but 110 v 10 w, dual contact bayonet bases. Glass looks like
plain glass, but smoky.
Anyone have any idea whether or not they are of value health-wise ?
Searched google and stores without success, anyone have any idea
where I might find replacements ?
And for topic, I can see the broken filaments, anyone have any idea
how I go about repairing them? :) :)
Take care.
Ken
They sound more like filament bulbs that real UV bulbs. Filaments
produce minimal amounts of uv, but are often sold as uv tubes.
As for uv in a drier, what for? Dryness alone kills pretty much
everything. If you have a specific reason for needing them, eg a med
lab, then you'll need to replace the UVC tubes. But they sound more
like valueless filament jobs.
