| Dec 29, 2022 at 0:44 | comment | added | Jimbo100 | The bulb is listed as 12/24 volt, and is a direct replacement for a 25w bulb. Like I said, definitely not comfortable in the electrical/electronic space, so before forking out almost £100 (per lamp) for battery and bulb, I'd like some sort of confirmation that it will work, and give the duration we're looking for. | |
