Way back when a lot of houses only had one light bulb hanging from the ceiling. I was sent on a DIM LIGHT call. The house was a two room sharecropper house. After checking the voltage and connections outside.   I went inside to check the panel box which was in the kitchen. I looked at the 100 watt bulb hanging from the ceiling. It was very dim. I looked at it closer with my flashlight and asked the lady if she would get me a soapy cloth. I turned the light off and let it cool for a few minutes and then commenced to wash the bulb. When I turned it back on the light was bright and the DIM LIGHT problem was solved.
