Sylvania 15W clear S11 bulb, rare!
I found this little rarity (no MLP pun intended xD) in a tiny 5 ft² fridge. The socket and diffuser have not been designed for a full-size A15 lamp, so I was suprised upon popping open the diffuser to reveal a clear S11 lamp! Even better, it's not your average 7.5W lamp, it's a 15W! Note the interesting C-7A filament that's longer than the 7.5W ones.
