Sorry if you can't handle the truth. Where are all those fire
reports from 50W halogens like the OP is talking about using
because they were not put in porcelain sockets? If they are half
as unsafe as you claim, why are they still being sold. So far,
in all the above, the only thing that makes sense is the NY Times
talking about fire hazard of torch style halogens. That does make
sense because they use a very different halogen bulb from what
you have in an incandescent replacement style. Further the bulb
is in an upward facing dish, making it easy for a curtain, etc
to get in it, if you're careless enough to let that happen. I've
had several of those operating for 35 years here and no fires.


Make sure you have a good fire extinguisher. A really good idea
even if you don't use halogens.

Good grief, yet another fappin' Cracker Jax engineer. You're
completely clueless.

so you own stock in a construction company? or a private fire company?


More lies from Malformed. Who wudda guessed! what a frappin' moron


indeed you are. thank you for admitting it


Typical lefty, a lie mixed up with a IKWYABWAI. It is all you can do,
Malformed.
