Hi Clive, Mine are SEDs (winged C).
From what I understand about the whole Svetlana debacle, there are 2
factories - one the older Svetlana plant, the other called Reflektor - both
in St Petersburg - just to complicate matters.
The Svetlana brandname is owned by some US company in the US but that
copyright doesnt seem to extend to Europe...
What used to be known as Svetlana are now Winged C or SED branded to avoid
the complication (yeah right) ...
