Vintage Edison Carbon Lamps

00:27:34

I could not find on Internet 50 watt carbon bulb, so I have two 25 watt carbon bulbs.  They get hot, with a clean can over two bulbs with both ends cut out standing two inches above mounted bulbs to hold second small clean can. You can vaporize liquids or melt wax or paraffin.  Insulate inside of can to make it work better.  Cut side of can to run wires to bulb sockets.  Mounting base is board.

These are the glowing filament bulbs in vintage restaurants- the badge of retro cool- that flickers candle like effects.  Might need to fit your dining room with some for a warm glow, even bedroom?

With 10 Watt carbon bulb in series with 120 line voltage you can test speaker winding and listen for 60 cycle hum.
