... and how often should you change that light bulb (lamp)???

Manufacturer says every 2000 hours, but the prudent will change it every 1000 hours. Unless of course you have it removed and tested every 100 hours or you have bought a custom bulb bypass filter which will allow you to run the bulb for 10,000 hours. And maybe we should upgrade the wiring to the bulb from 12 gauge to 10 gauge to get a brighter bulb, unless of course you think that will void the warranty on the bulb.
 
one to debate that westinghouse bulbs are better then general electric
