Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

They appear to have Mazda 60w lamps.

Annoys me also when you see fluorescent fittings listed as 'striplights'. Two entirely different things!
Bad choices make good stories!
