You act like there was never any discussion on why SeaView decided not to us the GE PAR 38 floodlight bulb….Once again you are so very wrong

In a phone interviews with J.R. Cox, of SEVU this past week, Mr. Cox stated that "GE isn’t involved" and that "SEVU made their own housings out of plastic and that they do not use glass lenses or housings". Mr. Cox also refused to explain why no retraction or correction was ever announced.


The reason he didn’t answer you was, IMO, you did care about the truth. If you would just do a little reading you would have known that….OH I forgot, you are some kind of great investigator…what a joke

The original plan was to use bulbs (technically "glass envelopes") from GE. This process looked simple enough: buy the "blanks" and put in the IRFS system and camera. The problem arose when we got ready to order our first shipment. GE could only ship 10,000 units initially, then 25,000 in a month. Why? They are in the business of making GE light bulbs, and that is their first priority. We also discovered that the "blanks" themselves comprised several different parts, each manufactured by a separate GE division, with no coordinated shipping or delivery between the plants. In other words, instead of 10,000 blanks, we were in fact having to order 10,000 of part "A," 10,000 of part "B," part "C," and so on...each from a different factory, producing on a different schedule. Imagine the nightmare when each of these items ships in a different place, time, and quantity...with no guarantee of everything being in place all at once...ever!

Six months ago, I made the decision to build our own housings. We started from scratch, and both styles of SecureView "bulbs" are now produced from our own tooling...all paid for, too! Now we have the capacity to produce 100,000 units a month. All the pieces that make up the bulbs were custom-designed for quick assembly and servicing.
