for a glass panel enclosed air cooled reflector. just two holes on either end with a reflector in between with a glass panel to seal it up. which end of the bulb is hotter, the base of the bulb or the tip of the bulb? back to the two flanges(holes) the tip of the bulb is near one flange and the base of the bulb (which is in the socket) is also near one flange. or does it not matter? if yes, explain. if no, explain. Please and thank you very much sorry i can't be very clear sometimes. improper wording i guess. hope everyone gets it.

hes asking which is more efficient, venting from the base where its less efficient or at the top which is more efficient. I believe it will be about the same, you may get slightly more cfm when venting from the base but you also get more turbulence through the ducting which might reduce cfm. Id just go for the way in which the cord is most convenient to the socket.


**No this isn't what i was asking but is useful. Thnks.
