this is the unofficial odd thoughts, observations and random question thread

Have you figured out what they're calling the socket type for the bulb? That would be the first place to start IMO.

edit: Relatively recent commentary on the subject....

Are there any LED floor lamps with equivalent lighting as my old Halogen 500 watt torchiere?

Answer (1 of 2): There are numerous LED cob lights that will produce the equivalent of 500 watts of light (between 5,000 and 7,500 lumens) using an E26/E27 base yet consume between 40 and 60 watts of power. There are other base or connections configurations if that does not meet your requirements.

Confused. You meant reuse the out going hose but replace the incoming braided hoses? I'm not a plumber but for sure the incoming lines were replaced when the installer put in my replacement washer. Since it's rubber hose, they would age crack regardless. May as well replace all 3 (hot/cold incoming + outgoing) while you have the unit out.

You mean replacement for these type of bulb? I believe these are T3 bulbs and I have replace mine with Philips LED ones in my bathroom. But I can't seem to find them currently and Philips Canada website don't show them. IIRC, I got them from Amazon and they weren't cheap.

I meant to respond to this, but forgot....

Pretty much standard to replace the inlet hoses when you replace your washer. They're not crazy expensive, and when/if your older ones fail they make a hell of a mess.

I believe the last time I had a washer installed hookup and removal was included, but they required new hoses for the service.

I could only see a sub like that being remotely, and I mean remotely, attractive if the mouse was free (I don't think the article said it would be). Even then, I'd just buy a new mouse rather than paying a sub long term... that's a weird one for sure. If they put their software updates behind a sub, I'd move to another brand likely.

She was a group president at Unilever for one division. The company spiel about her mentions 'stakeholders' but doesn't mention anything about 'mouse holders' though - that's us 😁 I wonder if it uses ink?

“[She] will continue to drive the innovation Logitech is known for, and advance the company’s unique culture, to unlock Logitech’s full potential for long-term growth and increased value for all our stakeholders."

You can get a 'subscription' for canned oxygen and with all the forest fire smoke and air pollution...
