Don't forget: Do not touch the bulb glass with your fingers. Use long-nose pliers with some electrical tape wraped so you don't crush the bulbs. Good luck!

4 is correct,i used the 194's.
These are cheaper and not quite as hot,I think it is 1.5
candlepower less than the 882's.
Oh ya,i agree do not touch the bulb--oily fingers.

fingerprints on quartz iodine lamps can weaken the glass because it gets so hot, but 194 lamps are not quartz iodine and you can handle them with your fingers without any problems.
