These bulbs actually served two purposes. Yes, the color filter does help the deceased look their best, but the're also there to catch angry or restless spirits. The heat you feel from that bulb is actually a small amount of hellfire fueled by the ghosts trapped within.

Eventually, they may be useful for us all! Hehehe!
Fascinating, and a bit creepy. Thanks for sharing!

That was funny. Creepy red light indeed

The morgue or parlor might be a bit colder than we're used to, so the extra heat might not show
I didn't know my inquiring mind wanted to know this, but thanks, Fran, I guess it did.

Yeah, the embalming, presentation and viewing of a body never made sense to me either. I guess if you get enough of those lights, the IR heat will cremate a body? If visiting a loved one in a funeral home means standing near super-hot lights, then the experience goes from awful to God-awful! The most morbid bulb on eBay. And YOU found it! I learn something new every time you bring a project to life. Or, maybe death in this instance?

I liked the "red shifted" comment.

Fran, unless you have some other special plan for the bulb, how about a tear-down. Might be interesting to see if your guess about the size of filaments are correct.

Hi. Nice to see you. How's the wife and kids. Don't I look like myself?
David Peaker
I have to get some of these, they're bound to come in useful sometime, right?
Bulbs for industry, bulbs for the dead! (with apologies to Firesign Theatre)

If you ever see those bulbs again, bang on the walls and shout "I'm not dead"!
William Alsing
I had no idea!
Gives a whole new meaning to the red light district...

Fun Vid! I agree - no funeral for me. I wanna be buried au natural in some woods with an acorn in my mouth so I can turn into a tree. Better than a tombstone!
