Thanks for this.  I've starting to have failures of 90W incandescent floods in 
recessed cans in my house and am considering LED replacements throughout (26 of 
them)  Longer life and cost savings are IMHO illusionary; my main interests are 
not having them catch fire, no RFI, reduced heat generated in the cans and 
maintaining luminance.  I'm open to suggestions.

Yesterday I purchased a Feit Electric PAR38 Cold Start 120 watt LED 
floodlight.  It?s supposed to start down to -40 degrees.

This morning I noticed a hash on 20 meters and suspicious of the new light I 
turned off and sure enough, the new LED floodlight raised the hash level on 20 
4 S-units, pointing the antenna away from it decreased the hash level so it 
must be radiating directly out of the device.  I?ll be returning it today and 
exchange for one of the plain old filament lights.
