The split between bayonet and screw in Australia does my head in, especially if you're in an older house where the landlord is cheap/doesn't care and half your sockets are bayonet and half are screw.
I need to replace a lightbulb in my hallway, but I don't know if it's screw of bayonet. I always forget to check at home, and then when I'm at the shops I don't know what one to get. It's been like that for a month now.
- NamTaf 8y agoI end up owning like 4 spare of each type for this reason. And then you get newfangled low-profile bulbs with a smaller socket for the screw or bayonet. One day I'll be pissed off enough at the problem to buy the solution but I suspect that'll take some time since the infrequency with which I replace bulbs means it doesn't sit in my active memory as something to do.
