Emergency room Made Oct 26, 2011, sent to the company Nov 3, 2011, published by CPSC Nov 18, 2011
The product, in the report: Miseeguarde is ge company in China. The American ge bulb seem to not explode . Only the Helical 13 WATT 120V, 180MA, 02/23/20107 was the first explossion of the 13 W 13106
I had the GE bulb in my desk lamp. I begin to smell an odor like burned rubber. Then suddenly the black smoky gas blew out of the base of the bulb. I became very, very, sick. My eyes watering and I couldn’t breathe. I was then sick all day. My eyes continued to hurt sinusly and my head began to throb. My head still feels swollen. I have sick spells. This is the second bulb to explode. The first time I thought to be a strange coincidence. But two bulbs exploding in the same 7-month period isn’t coincidence.
