Glamour Lighting For The Dead???
Added 2021-06-23 22:55:59 +0000 UTCSearching for the perfect bulb for your corpse to look their best at the big show? It's funeral lights to the rescue!! Yes, funeral lights - giving that warm glow of life to your lifeless corpse. Just because, people are that way. When they're dead. Enjoy!

These bulbs actually served two purposes. Yes, the color filter does help the deceased look their best, but the're also there to catch angry or restless spirits. The heat you feel from that bulb is actually a small amount of hellfire fueled by the ghosts trapped within.

2021-06-24 12:57:11 +0000 UTCThe morgue or parlor might be a bit colder than we're used to, so the extra heat might not show

2021-06-24 12:11:05 +0000 UTCI didn't know my inquiring mind wanted to know this, but thanks, Fran, I guess it did.
2021-06-24 07:02:14 +0000 UTCYeah, the embalming, presentation and viewing of a body never made sense to me either. I guess if you get enough of those lights, the IR heat will cremate a body? If visiting a loved one in a funeral home means standing near super-hot lights, then the experience goes from awful to God-awful! The most morbid bulb on eBay. And YOU found it! I learn something new every time you bring a project to life. Or, maybe death in this instance?

2021-06-24 00:46:45 +0000 UTCFran, unless you have some other special plan for the bulb, how about a tear-down. Might be interesting to see if your guess about the size of filaments are correct.

2021-06-23 23:21:07 +0000 UTCIf you ever see those bulbs again, bang on the walls and shout "I'm not dead"!

2021-06-23 23:17:51 +0000 UTCFun Vid! I agree - no funeral for me. I wanna be buried au natural in some woods with an acorn in my mouth so I can turn into a tree. Better than a tombstone!
