I don't rate nightbreakers. The put out plenty of light but don't last cery long at all. I was sick of changing the fuckers in my v70.
First time with them. They're bright (but then anything would be given the state of the lenses), but I did notice the other back of the packet the 3 blobs for lifespan (these are "Silver")

Those times are exaggerated imo.
It didn't help that in the v70 they were on all the time.
They say the light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long or some shit.
My evil ex managed crap MPG while driving no faster than I do too. I used to borrow her festering and return it with double the range after driving 50% of what it said when I got in it
Whilst looking for some other tool, I found my V.L. Churchill brake spanner and a purposely bent 7/16” AF spanner.

The 18G619 was acquired from the box of spares / tools in the boot of my old Austin 1100. The 7/16" spanner was from Alan who was a van courier, he was ex-Army and had no use for all his Imperial spanners that were borrowed* from the motor transport workshop over the years, so he gave them to me. There were a couple of them modified like this supposedly to make it easier to do the tappets on some Dagenham dustbin or other.
