<p>The new Lunar/IO bottles are tuned to run on 100w, whereas yours - an old style bottle - was probably tuned to run on a 75w bulb, so there may well still be a 75w bulb in there</p>
<p>Better to buy a 100w reflector bulb, IMHO, rather than a halogen version (gentler)</p>
<p>You can find them on eBay, if Mathmos don't have them...Crompton are good</p>
<p>Value? depends on condition/market... up to £1k - but I'd give it some TLC and hang on to it - they aren't making them any more</p>

<p>That's a Lunar, nice lamp!</p>
<p>Needs a bit of a clean but so do most of them - it's 25 years old</p>
<p>Mathmos still do new bottles, @£100, for the Lunar and its new version, the IO</p>
<p>Keep the old bottle, you can always refill it with glitter from Marcel on this site - Goolamps I think it's called</p>
