We live in west TX and during the summer it can get up past 100 and is usually pretty dry. We have had our light up for a couple of years and it's still working like new. There's no wear at all. We have ours set up over our garage doors. Keeps our driveway well lit after dark. BTW, if you don't want to hot wire it, it can be done with relative ease. Reply if interested. Hope this helps...

We have had it for several years and haven't had any trouble. It gets full afternoon sun. Has worked well and is very reliable.

Gets pretty hot here in Texas, 100 degrees today. I have 3 of these fixtures and haven't had problems.

Call your local FD for advice.I just got off the phone with my town's fire inspector and he said they have never had a problem with any extinguisher reacting to the temps in New Hampshire in his 15 years. He recommended an extinguisher for ABC classes and said they won't explode because they are dry chemicals (powders I guess). We had an electrical fire in our rear taillight a few months ago and no extinguisher. I'm hoping that by being prepared, it won't happen again!

I have not had a problem with that at all. do you think it could using too high of heat?

i dont believe so , most likely it wont resist the extreme temperatures of a house fire . however it is great for keeping documents/valuables/dangerous items away from family memebers and friends. although if you threw it out of the 4th story of a building it would probably break right open. this is not for top level safety this is just for a hobbyist to keep certain items out of reach of others

It's been down there in temperature a few times here (NC) and it's been good. I have a cover on it, use it in combination with a blanket, and generally have the heat set to 66 or so at night.

Don't know if you received my update. I am located in South Florida.I doubt that it will withstand the heat. I received the lid, as it was missing, either in February or March of 2015. As of right now, the lid is warped, no longer fitting in the left front.

I doubt it as well. It may not melt, but I am sure it still gets hot to the touch.

I looked over the documentation and it doesn't go up that high. I don't know how high it goes but definitely not to 750 degree as that kind of temperature will require special safety gear.

No, the product will not melt but will become a little more tacky. I have had mine for a few months now and noticed that with the change in temp. (summer to winter or from around 90f to 20f) the Sticky will become a little more brittle and a little less tacky. It seems also to pick up every bit of dust in the air, because of the tacky nature of the plastic it is made of. Still works well and holds items but a little less tacky than first purchased. Have had item a few months now. Its not expensive so I would say give it a try.

Hi Sally,I am on a boat and used Quakehold a lot to hold small stuff down while cruising.I have an even temperature but I would think at a high temp. of 100 it would melt down.As I said it has been invaluable to me. I did try to use it on pictures on the wall but this wouldn't hold it needs to be on a table or such like not on a wall. I do use it to stop pics from sliding keeping them in place but after an amount of time we decided just to screw the pics to the wall, saved a lot of hassle.I hope this helps in your project. Glad I could be of help.Regards, Jean Hi Sally,I am on a boat and used Quakehold a lot to hold small stuff down while cruising.I have an even temperature but I would think at a high temp. of 100 it would melt down.As I said it has been invaluable to me.

I haven't had any issue with heat with mine. But I wouldn't use a real high heat with even heat protected

I live in NC where it is extremely hot & we have had absolutely no problem with the material breaking down. It's been in continual usage & looks just like it did when we first set it up. It is a very durable product.

Gee I have not used this very much, and I am not having any issues with it yet. Not sure why yours may have done that. Was it exposed to extreme heat?

I haven't stored mine in the heat, but I have had some that arrived melted together. It didn't impact the performance though.

We have had this tarp for a little over a year and it has done well so far. It is not uncommon, in our area, for the summer temperatures to reach beyond 100 degrees F for several days in a row. So far, so good - good luck.

I leave mine on 24/7 and haven't had any trouble. I was concerned when I bought this that it wouldn't get warm enough based on customer reviews. It gets plent warm. Not hot enough to burn you, but pretty darn warm. I love mine. Much better than the one I had before.

It arrived in great condition for me, but it was colder when i last ordered. i could imagine that there might be the possibility of melting if shipped in the summer. hope this helps.
