Hahaha, having had my fair share of burns I feel your pain man, but I must say after reading through this whole thread I lawl'd hard. How in the world did you manage this one?

one of my open bulb rooms im converting to trays and hoods, but i dont have hoods yet, just trays......

the 5 bulbs are in an X pattern in the room. one tray is in there right now, under the two farthest bulbs, the middle bulb is plant level in the room about 3 ft from the tray. lose you yet? i bent down to pick up the watering hose from the res, and when i stood up, bulb to the back......was really hard to sleep last night considering i sleep on my back....

Then I hear this high pitched scream (unfortunately it was my friend) and then a large crash.. He had burned himself on a 1000watter and it looked so painful.

now that cracked me up!

high pitched scream then CRASH! lmfao!

Damn get some sleep sadist!

I have had them explode on me while spraying, but after seeing the spinal injury I think I'll concede on the pain front.

I still win for blood lost by bulb imo.

blood lost by bulb? holy shit, gotta hear this one lmfao!

Okay....

I was spraying for one last foliar feed right before flower.... whilst drunkenly swaying like one who should not be in the grow at all... I believe this aforementioned BAC led to the main cause of the spill (as well as the cause of the cause of the spill).

When my overzealous *and I mean OVERZEALOUS* application reached the bulb, the bulb reached its limit of dealing with drunks in its kingdom. BOOM Think Bangkok firecracker. It immediately severed itself twain and the most formidable end launched off of the element and clanged into the side of the reflector.

Reflectors are well named. It reflected that nastily rent edge (and probably starting a spin into it) imbedded it into my foot. It is such a great effect that everything in a good grow is shiny. Stoners don't mind much for a brief moment while they're being impaled with burning hot glass as long as something is pretty to look at.

Then things were dark... and soon painful. I deftly (daftly) pulled the glass dome out of my foot (STILL HOT DAMN IT) and ended up corking the entire "Good Spot" of my foot free of skin. Stumbling through splinters of stings and needles I tracked a trail of blood towards light.

If you ever look at the top of your foot, what I refer to as the Good Spot is about one inch past your shin in your ankle and two and a half inches beyond.... circularly... at least I have a lot of pipelines there.

Keep bulbs and bottles away. You'll thank me someday

And don't spray with your lights on.

It helps if you have pants on as well.

there have been several times i have heard a shhhhhhh when drops from a sprayer would hit the bulb. i am always scared it bulb would shatter and impale my eye, now that i heard this story.....

glad im not the only none who goes in there grows in there underwear and wife beater.....

 

[crazybear]

Can this really happen? I've heard its possible that oil from your skin can get onto the bulb and make it blow. Not sure if it is true though having never messed with my bulbs bare-handed

yes!

 

[BrainSellz]

wont the bulbs explode if you get your finger grease on them? .

I believe thats only for halogen bulbs Yes4, i may be wrong but im pretty shore. And mean mr mustard that was phunny bro, cracked me up

Krunch, there are many good reasons that industrial luminaires are designed the way that they are. It would be a damn good idea to try and copy the safety features as well as using the lamp! I'm betting you could come out with a highly salable cage design. You've already got the marketing pictures.

Yikes. The bulb doesn't seem to have a depilatory effect.

I had a date planned with a hottie... So I get my motorcycle out and I'm warming it up... So I look down and I see a wire that looks like it's sitting on the exhaust pipe,,, so I get down and I'm checking it out and I hear a sizzling and then feel it burning on my F*CKING forehead... Trying to explain a golf ball sized blister on my forehead in the middle of dinner... I plead the 5th on innernet poRn later that night...
