Why is it still in one piece? |
| mengfei:
yikes! smoke detector worked? it's a fully closed bulb & no vents at all? all heat rises top part & will surely kill it in due time, i had a lot of those unbranded ones die on my. But those philips or osram one's are still alive & kicking after a year or so & some are even embedded in the ceiling with enclosure though they are just 3~5w LED. |

It's sights like that which give me nightmares..... With the old-fashioned incandescent, this sort of fire risk was just not an issue. Yes, it did have its issues, but nothing quite like this. Same for CFLs. |
