Quoted from swampfire:Personally, I'm considering this a "myth" for now. I've put CPR plastics on a bunch of my pins, with #44 bulbs under them. I haven't seen any signs of problems yet.
Ummm...yeah dude can't back you there...that's crazy talk for real. What "mechanical stress" is there on loosely fitted EM plastics?
Quoted from dsuperbee:I am sure we have all seen plenty of plastics bent/warped from being over scoops, and have seen them warped from bulbs (where you could see the brown discoloration from the heat of the bulb.)
