Old ABI Prefocus Krypton Bulbs AC2362 x5, P13.5S 4.8V vintage decor

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Lot of five old ABI brand electric bulbs, presented in their original holder. These are prefocus base models, identified on the packaging as "Krypton" bulbs referenced AC2362. Each bulb is type P13.5S, with a voltage of 4.8V and a current of 0.75A, specifications readable on the blue label of the box. The presentation is neat, with each bulb placed in a white perforated holder for individual support.

The bulbs, cylindrical in shape with a rounded end, are equipped with metal bases visible on the front, typical of prefocus models historically used for specialized applications (projectors, portable lamps, optical equipment). The transparent glass reveals the internal filament, characteristic of vintage technical bulbs. The set displays a retro look, reinforced by the typography and colors of the original box, deep blue with a yellow "abi" marking on the edge.

The original box, clearly visible in the photo, bears the following detailed inscription: "AC2362 PREFOCUS KRYPTON P13.5S 4.8V 0.75A", as well as the mention "10 pièces" (only five bulbs present here). This period presentation reflects a sober and functional industrial design, typical of electrical equipment from past decades.

The set stands out for its utilitarian and authentic aesthetic, perfectly suited for decorative display in a vintage interior, a workshop, or to illustrate the evolution of lighting technologies. A slight patina is visible on the metal supports, indicating prolonged storage, with no apparent major damage to the glass or the visible structure of the bulbs.

The lot is ideal for decorative use, retro scenography, or the faithful restoration of an old device requiring this type of technical bulb. The presence of the original ABI box adds a heritage dimension to the set, appreciated in an industrial decoration context or historical staging.

Did you know? The P13.5S prefocus base was widely used in 20th-century technical lighting, particularly for portable projectors, professional flashlights, and optical instruments. Krypton bulbs, like these, offered better luminous efficacy and a longer lifespan than classic filament bulbs, before the advent of LEDs.
