SUN-E-DAY Lamps!

[lightedcontrols]

Anyone have a resource for 120v germicidal lamps that could be used in Kenmore washers? I was lucky on mine, but what if it burns out??? I know that I will need one for a Maytag dryer that I have too. Thanks, Mark

they RARELY burn out

they won't work unless the incandescent bulb nearby is working properly, but they RARELY burn out ..............

Yes Greg!

These lamps are wired in series with a 40w appliance bulb....and you're right, usually it's the appliance bulb that burns out! Mark

Ozone Bulb

Is it the same 4 watt bulb that Frigidaire used in its filtrator dryers? If so Mark, I have about a dozen extra bulbs. Just let me know when you need any.

Thanks!

Thanks Rich! I'm not sure if it's the same bulb ot not. It has a c-9 base (like the large outdoor Christmas light) and is round like an old type flash bulb. Mark

Puritron air purifiers are loaded with those bulbs, I've found a couple of them at thrift stores and estate sales, one was just a convection type that hung on a wall that netted 8 bulbs and the puritron I found was a double version of this (link) ad that had four in it.

I've seen them broken, but never burned out.
