>Bill, Actually, the bulbs are (BUILT at/ rated at) Higher voltage, (maybe 130-150v) have larger wire elements, and when run at lower voltage (115-v), they run at less WATTS/ Less HEAT and are more "bump-resistant" because of the larger wire element; (then they LABEL "Rough-Service" at actual watts used for 115-v) Terry thenne1713@aol.com
Yes. I may be missing your point, or perhaps I stated something
poorly, or left this detail, out.
This design also makes them less efficient as creating light
per watt expended. No issue if rough service is the greater need.
Some also are coated so IF they break, they don't tend to
go all over the place. This is nice if your face is right beside
it during work. The coating feels like hard rubber, to the touch.
Not all have this feature.
