atw: Re: What do you call it???

Hi Sheetal,

I don't think anyone will be too confused whichever
you use. Like you, I prefer British over American
English.

I see that projectors *tend* to use lamps or bulbs.
Lamp is often used to mean the whole fitting. So a
headlamp includes the reflector and bulb or globe. 

Use of 'lamp globe' seems odd to me, but it is used.

Cheers,
Terry
