I have concluded that the lamp is filled
with inert gas and sealed with a cheap white compound, after this
white compound is exposed to heat over many hours; it will
disintegrate, cracks,




The white compound does not seal the contents of the bulb inside it. It
just adheres it to the reflector and other works.
