so what happened? the bulb layed down into a horizontal position but still suspended from the hook?I was too poor to buy a compatible reflector in which to properly mount that bulb, so I hanged up the socket chord from a hook. Never do that haha. I'm lucky nobody called the fire department, there was that much smoke.
oh damn. i had a similar situation when i first got my hid system and hung it up for the first time.I hanged it up vertically, and the cable slipped and broke the bulb on the floor. It took forever to get the smell out of the house.
