Lightforce are as tough as old boots ...must have been something radically wrong for it to melt like that.
Was it in original spec or had you upgraded it? Why are lightforce giving you no joy?21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
That's unusual I've had four 170's on current and previous D3 for about 9 years now with no issues other than a couple of blow lamps and a tiny bit of water ingress on one which was solved with a bit of silicon gel around the threads where the reflector screws on.
Did it have the correct rated lamp in it?The End
