I never kept the product because mine came broke on delivery. How ever Halogen lights can get warm and go off but not every 10 minutes, something is wrong with your light to make it over heat that quickly. Did you put a higher walt bulb in it by any chance? That might account for the problem otherwise you got a defected one contact them. Hope this helped Good Luck Shari

I'm a bit confused, as I bought one completely unsatisfactory lamp from one vendor, ultimately returned it, then bought a similar-looking one from another vendor, and have been very happy with it. I know the good one was made by Light Source and purchased fromBethesda Lighting. I assume this ORE lamp must have been the first one. It was a piece of junk. I couldn't even assemble it because of its poor design. I put the Light Source together in five minutes.

i have the same problem with mine. I do not know what it could be. did you get another one?

This sounds like a problem with the bulb, or a loose connection. First, I would try removing the bulb from the socket and re-installing, just to see if the bulb might be loose. Next I would try a new bulb. If neither of those work, someone with electrical knowledge will have to check wiring and solder joints.

Mine is working normally. Have no problems technically, except the pole condition has some scratches when it arrived.

Hi,Mine first did that when it was first installed. The temp was set to high. I unplugged the unit and not turn it back on until the next morning and it has been great since then.

I think it's supposed to have an automatic shut off. Maybe yours is not working proper? Send it back.

I have had that happen but not often. I figured it must get "overheated" and it needs a cool down period. It will come back on after a short time. If this is the case--it's really a safety factor.

The unit should shut off when the batteries reach 10.5 volts. If it's shutting off sooner than that, you may have a defective unit.

Not sure if that is normal or not, mine does not do that however I run fairly heavy loads (800 watts) so my fan will come on and stay on for 20 seconds or more until unit cools enough. If you are running a light load that may be normal.

Maybe you're cooking too long? Does yours turn off automatically? Bc mine doesn't.

I'm pretty certain you have to cycle it back to low. I've had it run on high for as long as 7-10 minutes without it switching to low, but I have never let it sit that long without moving it.

Mine turn off after 10 minutes. Two units, each functions identically. Yours is probably faulty. Mine are in a closet, and they only turn on when I open the door. Are yours in an area where there is a lot of movement? That would keep them on.

It's on a timer. It will run for about ten minutes, shut for for about forty and repeat that cycle two more times. Then it shuts itself off. I love mine!

Mine is still going after 6 months. Every now and then I forget to turn it off after I use it, so I appreciate the auto-off feature that turns it off for me after a few minutes.

It goes off for a while, maybe a minute or two at the most, and then it shuts itself off -- I just tested this to see what it did, as I had it handy.

I think its lasted ten hours. Then it'll start blinking rapidly light blue for a minuet and shut off. I usually have it on during work continuously.

Mine also goes on and off frequently. Very little really running on it. Sometimes it's on all the time, but it doesn't get super hot underneath.

Sounds silly be but when the cool button is on it stays cool (unlike some that go back to hot when you stop pressing, it's almost more like an on and off button)try pressing up and let it run for 10-15 secs. If that's not the problem try contacting the company they are really good at sending new ones are sending free replacement pieces. Good luck!!

The coil shuts down and when it is cooled off the fan shut off. Hope that helps

I wish I knew, because this is a common problem. But I have a suggestion. When you are done using it, donot turn it off! Turn it on the coolest setting, zero I think, and let it cool down with air blowing through it. About 45 minutes. Otherwise you will burn up the heating element!
