Subject: [Homebrew_PCBs] Yellow CFL bulb
 


  
My 60 watt incandescent yellow bug light finally burned out after years of use. I checked several stores (Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes) for a replacement but none found. Walmart had a 90 watt one but I think that would be too bright for my dry film darkroom use.

Has anyone had any experience with the yellow fluorescent bulbs used as a dark room bulb? I'm concerned that since it is a fluorescent source it may still emit UV. Or does the yellow glass effectively block the UV?
