Entry: 12-volt bulb

Costa Rica Expat has 12-volt bulb in the dark:

On my short list of URGENT things to do this week: Buy five gallons of bleach and attack the thick, slick greenish black stuff growing on concrete patios and walkways, an annual wet season chore. If bleach fails, try muriatic acid. Buy poison and fight the new ant colonies in the back yard and somewhere in the attick near the front of the house. Call the fumigator to get rid of mosquitos and hammer down the indoor bugs again. Flush the septic lines and pour boiling water down drains. Take the ATV in for a new set of nubby tires and wash the mud off headlights and mirrors. Lay in a stock of canned goods, dry goods, cigarettes, frozen meat and cleaning supplies, in case the weather gets really gnarly this year...
