    Still using Eiko #47's unless it is a bgresto backglass then CoinTaker LED's frosted warm whites non ghosting as they are bright and work well for that application.

    Seems like Eiko have gone from bad to worse lately as far as longevity, sometimes just lasting a few hours.

    May have to go all Led's in the near future, still holding out for the most part. Having a small collection makes it tolerable for the time being.

    Could get lucky though as GE's light division has been up for sale for a while and whoever buys it could bring back the 44's, 47', and 455's. It would be interesting if a company in China ended up buying GE and putting Eiko out of business.
