I created this page since I didn't find this kind of information in a nice form anywhere. I hope people will hind it useful. I would appreciate if anyone could help especially with the non-European bulbs since I don't personally have lots of information about them. I'll also add a To Do -list to this talk page - feel free to edit. Thanks. -- MattiPaavola ( talk) 11:19, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
Filament type (axial vs. transversal) is interesting to know, since the best type for distant light projection is the axial type. Tranverse filament types usually render inferior light patterns, but could be useful when a wide pattern is desired (as in fog light headlamps).

There are no Canadian-specific bulbs. Canada permits US- and ECE-spec bulbs. There have been many strange Japan-only bulbs; they are _very_ difficult to document. Cap for H2 is X511 per IEC 7004-99 (holder per IEC 7005-99). 03:23, 17 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.63.52.205 ( talk)
I don't think there's high value in listing all the ANSI standard bulbs used in automobile applications - unless we can find something notable to say about automotive bulbs, you're better off looking at a manufacturer's catalog like [ [1]] and not here. -- Wtshymanski ( talk) 13:58, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
Since the European standardization was started in 1958, likely many of these lamp types did not exist back then. It would be more encyclopedic for the article to mention when each type was added to the standards. DMahalko ( talk) 02:53, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
