	The 'bulb miser' is simply a device which converts the current
to the bulb from AC to DC.  The DC current is much more suited for the
light bulb than the AC house current was. 
	Infact the 'Edison bulb' was designed to use DC, but would work
at a reduced life span with AC.  The reason AC was chosen over DC for
house current was that it could be transmitted over longer distances 
with less transmission loss.

	So the 'bulb miser' is a valid product for increasing the life
span of the incandesant light bulb.

	By the by, I do not own 'bulb miser' stock, just setting the 
story straight.
