Important - running a used or overheated HBO burner, a burner with an unknown number of operating hours or one from an uncertain source, may make it explode, damage the lamp housing, contaminate the room and endanger the life and health of the user. This housing holds a working but used HBO burner. How many hours it has already run, I do not know. I include it for one reason only, so that you have a sample of the lamp you need to buy. Please assume that the set does NOT contain a light source fit for use, that is, no serviceable HBO mercury burner.
