Depends on what you call hot Jim. Upper 29 C is hot here. 30 and up has
been a rarity here, but with climate change, it is not so rare now. 29
would be the top generally for Auckland in summer. 4 C the lowest in
winter.
It is the difference in the day to night time temperatures though, isn't
it? The difference for here would probably be about 10 C generally. More
in spring and autumn.

Ina, to say that cold is necessary is not the point I was trying to make. I was trying to emphasize that heat is the enemy. In our climate, it's too cold outside for these bulbs and too warm inside. Does it ever get hot anywhere in New Zealand?
