Now with the above facts in mind, which do you think is safer?
That's the same logic that dictates about how much money the
school board can save by NOT installing fire sprinklers in a
school building.

There's always those who will snipe at posts. But geez, man,
at least get the sniping right. What you quoted is a question.
See, it even has a question mark at the end. If you want to
attack the logic, then attack the part of the post that presents
the logic used. I'll make it easy for you: the facts are that
the bulbs were burning out 3 - 4 times a year. The logic applied
was that 3 - 4 failures per year per light over the course of 25
years yielded the 525 "ladder trips".
And, by the way, neither the question you quoted, nor the
snipped material mentioned saving money or eliminating
anything, other than the failures and consequent repairs.
Nor does your post add anything to the discussion, which
has to do with lamps. Sheesh - try to illustrate how reducing
voltage to a lamp increases longevity and you get a bunch of
uninformed bull****. F.Y.I. - the place has been inspected yearly
by the fire officials and passed every time.
