I installed 5x of the new G4 XR30 pros this morning and when I had finished programming everything in ecosmart live I moved one of the lights, noticed a burninig smell and saw that the new lens had melted where I had temporarily set it down! Warning to all other people, if you are doing maintenance on these and need to set them down they can melt/warp! I know all of my other LED fixtures have gotten hot in the past, but not hot enough that the lenses started melting
