Headlight not working UPDATE

Is this the fully one hour argument or just the half hour one?

Dude, if your dad was an auto electrician he would have called them bulbs. Fifty years in the motor trade and I never, ever, not even once, heard them called anything different. Come to think of it, the first time I did was on this very forum (pretty sure it was Andy M). 

You're very probably right, I honestly can't remember and I can't ask him now, I've obviously spent too much time around sparkies etc.

Interestingly a quick look at the history is a little confused, the first line from Wikipedea reads 'An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light with a wire filament heated until it glows.'

I think it was just the five minute one, really. And it’s done now.

"I could be arguing in my spare time!"

 

Gotcha!
