replacement, attention should be drawn to the fact that the increased weight may reduce
the mechanical stability of certain light fixtures may impair contact making and bulb
retention.

touching it.
Note: Always test the temperature of globe with your fingertips before grasping it.
Step 2: Use a step ladder or stable chair
