the comparativelylow specific resistance of this materialthe filaments for 110-volt lamps mustbe long and slender, and this necessitatesa special form of support. Figs. 5, 6,and 7 show some interesting views of the tantalum lamp and thefilament. This lamp is operated at the efficiency of 2 watts… … Fig. 5. Round Bulb TantalumLamp 273 10 ELECTRIC LIGHTING in the first of the tantalum lamps. It should be noted that thelife of this type of lamp on alternating-current circuits is somewhat uncertain; it is much more satis-factory for operation on direct-current circuits.
