    The product, in the report: Harbor Breeze 52-in Southlake Aged Bronze Outdoor Ceiling Fan with Light Kit http://www.lowes.com/pd_331104-88854-LP8055LAZ_4294935502__

    We have two of the subject ceiling fans (Harbor Breeze Southlake) installed in our lanai. These fans are intended for use in outdoor locations. All instructions were followed properly for installation and use, and we had no issues prior to this event.

    I turned on the lamp on one of the fans this evening, and after a few seconds, heard a cracking and popping noise and heard something drop on the ground. A second and third such noise followed a few seconds after that. I looked up at the fan, as the noises appeared to come from the general direction of the lamp, and noticed a 1/4” hole in the lamp globe at the point where the globe meets the fixture, with a 1/2” crack extending from the hole downward. I immediately shut off the lamp, and will not be using it until we can get a replacement globe. The obvious danger is that the globe would continue to crack and eventually fall off the fan causing injury to someone below it.

    My thought is that due to the outside temperature going down to 55F and the bulb being a 100W halogen, the cracking in the globe may have been due to heat differential between the bulb and the temperature of the globe, causing rapid expansion of the glass. We are also going to be looking into a replacement LED bulb as those will not produce as much waste heat as a halogen and will reduce the chance of .

    The product, in the report: Harbor Breeze Chesire White Ceiling Fan Light Kit Fitter model# CS42WW5C made by Litex and distributed by Lowes

    Harbor Breeze ceiling fan light kit fitter model CS42WW5C malfunctioned when I turned on the lights. One of the three light sockets exploded. The light bulb and the metal light socket threads from the light kit fitter burst out of the unit during a flash electrical fire. The molten metal from the bulb and socket singed the carpet where it landed, but the fire did not spread. The light kit fitter was permanently damaged. Soot was left on the inside glass of the ceiling fan light fixture. No one was hurt. The Litex fan company agreed to send the consumer a new light kit fitter as a “one time courtesy.” The ceiling fan and included light kit had been used under normal household conditions for approximately one to two years.
