This is what the 56 is.
Pin-wise it is the same as 37, but the Vf is 2.5V so it will either burn out, or take down the transformer's winding as it can withstand much more current and will draw way more current than the winding is capable of.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
