I just bought a new lite bulb too. Can anyone tell me what its rating is and how much it is worth?

It depends- was it a low-carb lite, or just less filling? And then what is the certification of those doing the rating? Board certified, self gratified, state, national?

Being as how it's the season and all, I think you should be more specific and tell us exactly which color bulb you are talking about, and its psoition in the string, and whether the string is used indoors or out.

In a multi color string is it acceptable to have two of the same color bulbs next to each other?

Yes and we need to know if it is one of those dreaded light strings where if one bulb goes bad the whole string goes off.

Harbor Freight has a sale on light bulbs.
Are they any good? I only use mine occasionally.

and one to ask what the light bulb's "ampacity" is, and one more to expound on how "ampacity" is not a word, and 40 more to prove that it is indeed a word, but not in that context. LOL!

They would not burn out if you did not turn the switch on so hard.

Also, if you"re not gonna use this bulb...could I have it to make a dummy load out of for my radio? Does anyone know how much power I can run through it? And what the resistance would be? Hopefully around 50 to 75 ohms? Fred OH
