ok ive got a new problem. i was sitting here typing and the MVB i just got yesterday went out. it worked fine alday yesterday and all of a sudden now it went out.
i touched the hood and ceramic part and found that it was hot! waaay hotter than it got yesterday. so i unplugged it. im hoping when i plug it back in in ten minutes that it will work.
this morning before i turned his light on for the day, i took the hood off the chain and set it down UPSIDE DOWN
to readjust the length of the chain. i didnt want to set it down normal because the bulb sticks out about 2 inches and the whole hood is kinda heavy for that.
so did i kill it but turning it upside down, even though it had been off all night long and totally cool?
jeeze these things are so touchy!...
*EDIT*
ok so i just plugged it in and it turned on :mrgreen: .
so i guess the question is, what would make it heat up like that? it was on for a good 6 hours yesterday with no problems. i touched it several times and wasnt that hot. today, i plug it in and after maybe an hour it just goes off.
anyone wanna take a whack at this?
