Yeah I ran my LCR meter more than once, 32 and 36 pF respectively, The bulb sockets came in a string and so i cut one out and stripped the wire ends for testing.
@ArthurDent
The sockets seemed pretty barebones, but ill rip one apart and see if there's something hidden in there.

Yeah I mean its just 60hz mains. I looked at the filament, and it doesn't really appear coiled in any way. My LCR meter is a $7 Arduino special off Ebay, but still pretty useful.

Hey, im subscribed to that guy! Yeah i've seen him teardown some bargain bin garabage, but its usually jank LED circuits. I didn't know they did the same for filament bulbs.
