Review on 6-Pack of 75-Watt Halogen R111 Reflector GU10 Flood Light Bulbs by Marcy Padia

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Bulbs explode with halogen bulbs

We've been buying these bulbs for years but in the last 6 months 2 of them have exploded, shattering the glass and scattering pieces around the room. In both cases we were lucky to be far enough away to avoid serious injury. After the first one exploded, we just assumed it was a lemon. But when another one blew up the other day we called an electrician to see if it was the lighting system. In anticipation of the meeting, I decided to read the comments and realized that I was not alone. I will be removing ALL the bulbs from our flashlights from this company and finding a more reputable brand. This is an extremely dangerous product. If anyone was nearby when the lightbulb exploded, a large splinter could certainly cause serious injury.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide
