[GreenKeys] [External] Tip on loops

[Bruce Gentry]

There are bulbs used for infrared heating in food service or poultry
brooding, as well as ovens. Also,  I have not seen any reduction in the
use or sale  of incandescent bulbs for vehicles. They are readily
available for up to 24 volts, and 32 or 64 volt are used for marine and
railroad applications. It may be forbidden to sell ordinary ones for
lighting, but where there is a will there is a way. Here in the US,
there are custom bulb makers that produce them for decorative and
specialty use. Meanwhile, collect and keep all of them you can find.
