WELL,I guess not!
How many of the old crappy regular Duraterm type glowplugs would they be
able to sell in America ,If we could buy these?

Ooh. I want some! Any idea on price?

I wish my GPs had a "gleaming chrome glow tube" :D

attendez-vous sil vous plait
 

"NOT AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES"

Robert Bosch North America KNOWS NOTHING about them.

I am hoping some of the European members know of these.

I sent "Parrot of Doom" an inquiry by PM.
Perhaps his Doomness will know more?

AWSROCK,

I'd pay AT LEAST $10.00 more per plug...3 (THREE) year warranty!
(AND if the soot wouldn't build up and stick to the "Chromium"...)

Found !

Great plugs, have them in my conversion to assist with cold veg starting -

Bought a couple of sets from here http://www.helptoday.co.uk/company/contact.asp

Cannot recommend them enough on price and service, without getting the invoice out they were about £3/4 each + shipping

Thanks for the update, CI!

Uh, how much is that in greenbacks???

1 GBP is about US$2. I don't know what shipping costs.

The chrome adds +5hp inside the combustion chamber!

Gloom and Doom!
 

Nice gentleman at helptoday in Lincoln (England) told me that Bosch ceased
making the duraterm Chromiums in 1992 !

I wonder why they did that? (HINT)

wonder if
 

We could get together and buy a pile of these for all of us at a reasonable
price?

Really? That is awesome!

I'd be up for getting together to order some. I was planning on replacing my plugs for winter at some point anyway!

Uh, I think it was mentioned above that they have been out of production for 16 years. :D ;)

Well. I am confused now :D
They are listed on the Bosch website though...

If they are still indeed produced or for sale I'd want them too..... :) I wonder if it actually makes any difference in starting....probably not.
