What is the danger
The lamp holder fixed with a double-spring steel wire frame can be pulled out with a force of 8,7 N and can be removed together with the mains cable. When moving the luminaire the lamp holder supporting the light source can slip out easily from the salt crystal and break, resulting in a risk of electric shock, since the spiral holders of the broken light source become accessible. The highest measured temperature was 184,8 °C (allowed value on normal flammable surface: 90 °C). The lamp does not comply with the LVD Directive and the European Standards.
