I have moved into a new house which has an external security light.
When i first switched it on light light came on briefly and then went off - I assumed that the bulb had blown. I retrieved the suspect bulb which was a, halogen tube, 115mm long, 500W.
I made a trip to my local diy store and purchase a similar bulb only a 300W.
I replaced the bulb but it was still is not working.
So...
There is a fused switch for the light. But in my attempt to change the fuse i dropped it down a gap in the floor board before retrieving the relevant information from it.
So...
What fuse do i need for this light?
Does the 300W bulb (instead of 500W) cause any problems?
Any other useful or otherwise ammusing comments?!
