No idea... I made mine from a bulb I found in the kitchen over the stove... Not sure if the packaging would have that kind of info or not. I'm thinking about seeing if I can buy some bulbs online though... Maybe there is an online supplier that sells lead free bulbs.
Again, for those who missed the first page:
When smoking from a homemade vaporizer be real sure the glass is lead free. Most glass HAS lead in it cause it is cheaper. Usually the only glass that is lead free is the more expensive glass used for cups and other items people are expected to drink out of.

ok, i can't find anything about lightbulbs having lead in the glass. The only lead is in the contacts, which we don't smoke. Wouldn't lead be more expensive than glass? Isn't that why crystal (lead glass) costs more than regular glass?

Yo man, I wish I could give you an intelligent answer... But I'm completely fucked up atm.
All I can say is I know two people that use to blow glass for a hobby. Both told me they had to buy special glass when blowing something that was going to be drunk out of or smoked from. One of those people, my little brother, gave the whole explanation... Sadly I cant seem to remember any of it.
If the only lead is in the contacts then you should be safe bro. :stoned:
