I believe that it is Phillips' intention to up the seal temperatures for the
lamps in the Broadway Line. This was the case for the GL lamps as well as
the short arcs. We have seen virtually no premature failures so far with the
GLA / GLC lamps. We are also getting full life (average hours) in our
Vari*Lites with the Broadway Series MSR700SA. I hope this helps alittle.
