The product, in the report: GE Edison 75 indoor floodlight bulb (track and recessed) 900 lumens, 75 watt, 2000 hours
Collar and lens pop off of these indoor floodlights within a month or so of first use. The lens is tremendously hot, and fused itself to the carpet in one instance... shattered and fell in pieces in two other instances. I fear it could cause a fire hazard or a burning risk in certain circumstances. Regardless, it ruined quality carpet, and has happened with at least three of 5 lights installed reccently.
