    A brilliant post there amigo.

    Indeed, on inspection, my 'Xenon' bulb does have a filament . Two to be precise. The bulb is 7500K - toward the blue side of the spectrum - but there is no noticable blueish tinge when the lamp is on (day or night). Ah well, never trust an eBay salesman with your daughter .

    However, the difference in illumination is still quite startling.

    The 'fake Xenon' bulb:

    For £6.99 delivered, I've nowt to complain about in that respect.
