This is my Philips mini iridium. The Philips mini iridium is the smallest size of Philips iridium. My Philips iridium has no bowl, as the bowl exploded. I don’t know how it exploded, but the lamp didn’t break. It runs on a 45w cosmopolis lamp and has a Royce-Thompson microstar 2000 mini-cell.

To open the lantern, there is a metal clip on the front of the lantern. Once the clip is undone, the lantern can be opened.
