Obviously, something is defective with the whole. Don't attempt to
repair something as that, especially if you don't have a clue as how
to troubleshoot the problem. Throw it in the trash and buy a new
unit.


Unless the lamp has a dimmer on it, how could the lamp itself cause the bulb to
explode.

It's an LOA bulb for christs sake!
