Comments:Paper sticker on base says "£8 LB110". Seller: B.T.H. Mazda blackout lightbulb was intended for use in the 'blackouts' during air raids. Rated at 230v 15w with a BC base. Unlike the Atlas blackout bulb that I am also selling [MB001] the coating on this is less effective and despite being a quarter of the output rating it gives off more light and looks grey. The tip of the bulb has had some coating scratched off indicating it has been used. My father told me that if the coating had no hole they scraped a small hole to give a light beam to read by. Original box with small tear in top flap.
