THESE LIGHTS MAY CATCH ON FIRE.

I just had a Hampton Bay photovoltaic cell MELT on me. The dawn-to-dusk ones, without the motion sensors, we have two by our garage, and one was staying on all the time. I replaced the bulb and shone a flashlight at the cell (underneath the fixture), and I saw it was glowing like a lit cigarette. The plastic started to melt, and I watched in disbelief a few more seconds and ran for the switch.

If anyone finds the number for the mfr, please post it here.
