Strange One

Drill a 10 mm hole in the ceiling

Insert a g9 240v led lamp inside the hole.

?

 

[ProDave]

WHY?

DIY endoscope?

 

[thewiz]

Trying to create a group of stars. Lol.

No live terminal's all connected in jbs.

C3?

Or do you think it's okay? Lamp won't get to hot

 

[ProDave]

Ah, you mean you found this on an EICR?

I thought you were intending to do it :coat

 

[Blue Duck]

G9's get f'in hot don't they?

 

[thewiz]

Yes found it on a inspection.

Can't see it being dangerous only thing is there is nothing in between the led lamp and plaster board.

Not 1w led lamps

 

[NozSpark]

Have they used the proper G9 lamp holders?

BTW I hate those things,, power hungry, pretty useless and every customer I know touches the lamp envelope with their hands and then complains that they blow too soon

I meant the halogen version..

You do know that they make a fiber optic version of what they are trying to achieve

 

[thewiz]

Lol I am aware of the fibre optic lighting. Afraid needs to be used primary lighting source.

Yes proper lamp holders are installed. They just litany stick out the ceiling

 

[Andy™]

so how do they replace any of the G9's when they fail?

small LED would have been the better (& safer option)

what about heat - are G9 suitable for direct fitting into a ceiling with no light fitting? doubt it

 

[Blue Duck]

They are 1w LEDs
