    Where do we get light bulbs now for our ovens and other specialty locations that require the old incandescent light bulb?

      RTFA. There are a whole list of exceptions, and appliance bulbs are the first bullet point.

      Incandescent bulbs were banned in the eu loooong time ago, I simply go to store and buy a new oven bulb when it pops. Yes they are still incandescent, because there are exceptions in the law.

      You mean appliance bulbs? They’re a different thing all together

      …please don’t tell me you’ve been putting regular incandescent bulbs in places that need appliance bulbs
