    Good day to you all .
    I have a question ,probably best to say when is a BR 49 not a BR 49 .
    Picked a lamp up yesterday with the preheater , it is 1271 XB stamped .
    So essentially it is a X246B with pre-heater and extended cage . Or it's a BR49 with X246 font .

    That's a very nice BR49B, it should go in the Reference Gallery in my opinion.
