Lightstrike, does it occur from incandescent lamps, or is it only from direct sunlight?
Im condinering putting a lamp in my fermenting fridge to bring the temp up (using the fridgemate on heating mode) but worried about lightstrike. If i cover the lamp, it will probably blow (or start a fire) within hours due to overheating.
Had a bit of a search for an answer but couldnt find too much, other than arguments weather it even exists or not.
Probably should be brewing lagers this time of year, but Ive been growing up some 1388 for a belgian strong and really want to get it going. The lower temp for 1388 is 15 degrees. Current temp in the fermenting fridge is 12. Need to get it up a tad.
