# 81 lamps- Addendum

I found out that my local O'reillys auto parts store can get me [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] bulbs by the box, WAY cheaper than blister pack. I got a full box for less than the cost of 2 blister packs!
I bought a box of them. Note: They may not always fit the Hickock tube testers, as there may a bit if envelope size difference, per a poster on another forum.

They can get you many other bulbs by the box way cheaper than the supply houses too.
Now I buy any bulbs I need from them, if they have them available, by the box.

I have had reports that on the import bulbs the current may differ-Unverified

Reports that the Asian made glass bulb is larger than the U,S, made bulbs and will not fit in some tube testers using this bulb- VERIFIED by myself. Broke the  bulb glass closing the lid on my Hickok T/T.
