These will absolutely come in handy on my Kirby, the bulb that came with it still works, but it flickers sometimes, so when it does blow, i'll have spares, I bought 3 of these. Thank you for still making these, I tried finding matching bulbs locally and it led me to an automotive parts store, I found some that physically matched, but had only half the wattage, so no good. These are perfect, everything matches, just what we need~
