How to Make a Fused Bulb Work

1.
Very important: If the filament has cut off from the connecting wires and is independently moving around the bulb, this effort is not worth it

2.
Check out if the bulb is fused because of a broken filament dangling to either edges of the Connecting wire ( this would mean, one end of the filament is still connected to the connecting wire and the other end dangling.}

3.
Slowly and with patience, get the other end to connect to the broken end. (It’s a little time consuming work, but the results are awesome)

4.
cautiously put the bulb back into its holder / socket and switch on the light.

5.
Leave it on for sometime, as the heat in the bulb will expand the filament and make the connect with the broken end, thereby staying connected.

6.
Happy Lighting and you reinvented Light

7.
Note that this would save you some money and less garbage from the environment for some time.


Tips
(Filament - thin strand of spring that connects the two contact wires inside the bulb, with two or three supporting wires)
There are inert gases inside the light bulb. Please be aware and cautious..........


Warnings
- Bulbs may be heated on continuous lighting, protect yourself while removing and assembling bulbs
Take protection while working with any form of Electricity.


Things You'll Need
A Fused non CFL Bulb, with its filament dangling at one one if the pin.
Appropriate Safety measures in case you have to climb up and / or down to reach out to remove the bulb
