Do you think you could make those pictures a little bigger? I'm having a hard time seeing them.

Agreed, seems to be a multitude of ridiculously sized images posted by inconsiderate xxxxholes recently. These cannot be avoided in the recent posts table even for guests and cause absolute havoc on certain devices, my TV for example.

It looks like a shaving light (typically top of bathroom mirror), with a small stringed pull switch.

Here are some LED replacement bulbs:

On the one hand, you are right, but on the other.
If you click on, open image in a new tab, it seems to automatically resize it, making it nicely viewable (at least in my case).

EDIT:
You're right, I suspect a TV, doesn't let you easily resize/view the images, if they are the wrong sizes, to begin with.

Looks too short for bathroom light fittings, plus the wattage is higher than normal (100W) and it has a reflector, wonder if it's actually a heat lamp?

The tubes used in shaver lights etc came in 2 sizes 221mm and 284mm,and from memory only went up to 60W. For a better idea how long is the tube and whats the end cap diameter

Example only! (as there seem to be many different ones).

As others have said heat-lamps, I've tried to find a possible ball-park (typical) one.

This one is at least, almost the same ratings, 100 watts and 230 V (240 V).

But, I'm also unclear about its dimensions (at an educated guess, this one seems a fair bit smaller), and type of connections etc.

Looks like hell even on a desktop computer, as it blows everything else away.
Use a reasonable size, and view it after posting in case adjustment is needed.
