WD Interior Lamps

[Jared Archibald]

G'day Neil and Richard,

This is starting to get interesting.

If I understand correctly from what you both have said, there are two types of interior lights for British AFVs. An adjustable-dimmer type light, and an on-off type light.

Richard, I am assuming that yours are the dimmer types. Is the control on the light itself or is the controller in the circuit and it controls all lights on the same wire?

Neil, is it possible to post an image of the on-off type. I have not seen either (apart from Richard's pic) and am interested to see what they look like.

In the small amount of Matilda info I have, it mentions that there are "six festoon lamps" in the hull and three in the turret.
Do either of the previously mentioned interior lamps correspond to a "festoon lamp".
