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:

Yes, but that isn't a thing that is actually manufactured, due to the lightbulb cartel. And if it was manufactured, they'd label it as 120V, long-lasting, because no country uses 130V power.
You can't just will arbitrary part specifications into existence. You can't declare that you need a 67.53 ohm resistor and then search for that. They only make certain values.
Yeah no way theres a transformer stepping up the voltage in his hood.
Its 130V rated for safety but realistically hes getting like 115
