Different resellers have used different numbering for the identical bulb over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it risky to touch the glass on a new bulb?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, skin oils can create hot spots on the glass once the lamp is running, shortening its life. Hold the new DT00331 bulb by its base or ceramic housing rather than the glass envelope when fitting it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182613967084,"sku":"LA-07777","price":128.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/generic-bigbulb.png?v=1786970157","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/dt00331-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
