Is there a difference between a 120V bulb and a 130V bulb? I thought we basically had 110-130V North American voltage and 220-240V Euro and others voltage as the actual voltage you get from the grid varies within a range. | ||

Yes, the 130 volt bulb lasts longer when operated on 120 volts. My family would buy these when I was kid. Some probably non-LLM explanations: https://blog.1000bulbs.com/home/why-buy-130-volt-light-bulbs https://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/14349/are-there-any-... | ||

Yeah no way theres a transformer stepping up the voltage in his hood. Its 130V rated for safety but realistically hes getting like 115 | ||
