Replacing the Lamps

The First Star lamps give approximately 800 hours of use, but a 
spare is a good idea. Bulbs can be replaced when cool, the same 
way a household bulb is changed. The inner tungsten halogen lamp 
is protected by a shatter resistant Pyrex

®

 outer shell, so no worries 

about the oil in your hands causing blistering or otherwise damag-
ing the bulb. For replacment bulbs use the 250 watt bulb  
(SKU # DP-250B). Other bulbs may be used, as long as they do not 
exceed 250 watts.

A quick word about SAFE

T

Y: 

The high wattage bulbs in the FirstStar will burn hands when they 

are hot, so please keep children away from lamps.  When you 

leave the room, be sure to turn off the lamps.  Always disconnect 

power supply when changing the lamps.
