UK R50 bulb ... that fits Fluidiums?

[Simon Lloyd]

Has anyone (in UK) found a 40W R50 Spotlight that fits the fluidium?

If you have please let me know.

Thanks, Simon

 Hi Simon. I have tried a  r50 spot light bulb, which does work, but...... it is a larger bulb so  and you cant snap the light fixture into the base because it is a little larger and longer. What happens is you will scorch the side of the base, and if left in to long, will begin to melt the base.

 You will get a faster warm up time with the r50 40w bulb,,,, but i really wouldnt recommend it unless  you want to ruin a fluidium.
