  Hello,

     I purchased an eprom eraser kit at a hamfest a couple years back. 
     It had the socket assembly, cord, and light.  Well, I cut out a section
     of a box for copier paper to allow the bulb and it's socket in.  I then
     put a shoebox inside the box to raise the eproms to the bulb.
     It didn't work.  After recent postings of bulb types I pulled it
     out to check the bulb.  It is a F4T5-BL bulb.

     Is this the right bulb or is the UV output too low?
     Does the surface the eproms sit on have to be conductive?
