8w U tube from Busybody lantern
This is the unknown 8w U tube from the Busy body lantern. Always been difficult to get, an address was provided in the instruction booklet to send off to for replacement. the total length of the tube is roughly 11 inches. I did try 2 x 4w in series but they wouldn't light to full brightness. I'm sure an alternative can be found and made to fit and work.

These are made in Japan, its exactly the same ones they use for interior lights in Toyotas Previa.

Is the fixture one of these magnetic ballasted flyzapper ones that were used during the mid to late 2000s. When the then new TESCO store opened in 2008 in Reading, there were these flyzapper fixtures that used 2x of these U shaped tubes, what I remember is that the tubes didn't last long and were always flashing at EOL
