Non-incandescent oven light?
Does anyone make an LED or similar type of bulb for high temperature
applications like oven lights? |

Led's do not like heat. Heat kills many in bus rear taillights in the hot sun. Leds like it cooler than 25 deg C. It would have to be through a window, just like fans do not last long in the heat, as in Turbo Oven. All fans are on the outside. greg |

To get 50 K hours life, they must be operated conservatively. Not many engineers do that when your trying to get a lot of light. greg |

What I am wondering is what I'll replace my oven light with if incandescent bulbs are regulated out of existence. |

If this is an industrial oven....like a pizza oven then a small metal halide
lamp can be used...I have seen this in a local rotery pizza oven MH lamps dont mind the heat and can last a L O N G time wattages are available down to 39 watts (who comes up with these offbeat numbers) and the 50 watt type fits a medium screw based socket . If this is a home oven check on flea-bay and stock up a dozen bulbs this should last like 10-15 years with casual use. "Bill J." wrote in message ...

Yes, these too are incandescent but not the type that will be regulated out of existence. They run hotter than an oven. -- LSMFT |

Totally a non issue as those bulbs are allowed and WILL be available (and can be used in your cieling fan too) |

I would not use an LED in a regular oven. How many hours a year is your oven light on where you will have a significant savings. The FED's are not eliminating regular incandecents for special applications, only primary home useage at this point. I currently have 3 intermediate base LED's in my convection/microwave oven and they have worked fine for over a year. They are the silica-gel covered kind, are designed to handle higher heat, and are certainly brighter than the originals. If they have lost any intensity over time, it is very little. -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/mainte...ht-618900-.htm |

Tragically, 6 years ago, Bill became so depressed because he couldn't find an LED oven bulb that he stuck his head in his oven with the gas on without the oven pilot being lit. He wanted to die from breathing the gas but he neglected to extinguish the pilot lights for the stove top burners. The resulting explosion killed Bill(no pun) and destroyed his house. He is survived by a wife, 3 ex-wives, 24 children, 3 dogs, 12 cats, a herd of dairy cows, 6 monkeys, 2 zebras, a 14 foot python and 372 very nervous gerbils. The gerbils really miss him.

(-_- I read a prison file. The crook tried to put a guy's head in the microwave and turn the unit on to kill him. Dummy couldn't get the door shut. You can't make this stuff up. He did kill the guy though, by other means. |
