Subject: Electric candles
During a visit to Stockholm for the 1975 IIC meeting I noticed the use of very effective electric candles in many historic sites. I was able to obtain samples of these, which had small bulbs that moved (the entire bulb, not the filament) and were low-voltage. An American company markets a similar version, but using line voltage (either 110 or 220V) bulbs. They now also offer an LED version. While these are quite effective, the low-voltage version always seemed preferable, as it allowed for easier wiring of historic fixtures. I wonder if anyone has information about the low-voltage version. Are they still available? If so, can you provide any contacts for obtaining them?
