Default UV bulbs

I bought a generic UV sterilizer from the LFS. It ran for a week or so then died.
It turns out that the filament in the bulb is blown.

On ebay, there are a bunch of people selling uv bulbs for curing nail polish.
4 bulbs for $1.

Would these do a similar job as the UV bulbs that the local stores sell for $30 each?


Thanks,
Ross
