The primary reason for a bulb to burst is a sudden change in temperature while it is turned on, such as contact with water.
If you keep whatever cooling you use CONSISTENT, your bulb should be safe.
There is info on different ways to cool your bulb in the FAQ.

BTW I like the results of your training the plant in back along the wall. That came out well.

I tried venting outside air into my hood, but it was still too hot, Did it the way I checked out most growers doing it and just sucked the air out from the hood, out of the room. I still have a active intake bringing in fresh air and with the two, I can hang out in the 70's with a 1K in a small space.
