Why are your LED bulbs not recommended for closed-light fixtures?


I just purchased 6 of your LED bulbs. Why are they not recommended for closed-light fixtures? 

We can confirm that several of our products are not recommended for enclosed fixtures due to the requirement for heat dissipation.

As LED products contain heat-sensitive internal hardware components, the bulbs will require a moderate amount of airflow to function properly and prevent overheating. Comparatively, traditional incandescent bulbs do not contain any hardware or materials within the fixture that are heat sensitive.
