Boom... no free tv guys
Need to dip into your own pocket for your next tv
My LG oled 65b7 burst into flames on the back in may/June. This was reported to LG and richer sounds - so them saying no reports in Europe/uk is a lie.
I own an OLED 65B7(September 2017) No problems so far!!!!My LG oled 65b7 burst into flames on the back in may/June. This was reported to LG and richer sounds - so them saying no reports in Europe/uk is a lie.
I'd have to agree. My brother in laws 55E7 clearly overheated resulting in a huge splodge of prematurely aged pixels in the centre of the screen. Fortunately for him, the retailer he bought it from, Sevenoaks, replaced it without quibble and with an E8 to boot. They didn't even ask for the E7 back.My LG oled 65b7 burst into flames on the back in may/June. This was reported to LG and richer sounds - so them saying no reports in Europe/uk is a lie.
If it's extreme heat then yes, be concerned. However, all OLED's run warm, or more accurately, have warm screens. It's just an attribute of the technology.Whilst cleaning the tv stand last night I became aware of quite a bit of heat emanating from my 65 inch B7. Not noticed this before. It had not been on for very long either-maybe 20 minutes or so. Should I be concerned?
So we carry on and if there is a fire, we then report it?....who on earth would have any confidence in these models (of which I own) having just received a warning message on my TV about overheating?
Thanks for your unhelpful response. I’m not looking for anything apart from a TV that does not put my family or my house in danger...care to comment? If RS state it’s a board change and can guarantee our safety...brilliant, if they can’t, I want a replacement.I think you are looking for more than just a board change.
Question - Anyone had a overheating warning from LG?
Switched on the TV, to be met with a message, warning of reported overheating issues and an offer to replace the boards....?www.avforums.com
What panel size?Turned on my tv tonight and was presented with the replacement boards notice with advice to visit LG support. I visited the link and they are indeed offering a replacement board for this model. However as I purchased the tv from Richer Sounds I will contact them in the morning and see what their stance on this is as I have the extended warranty with them.

What's your TV's model number? And what's its manufactured date (stated on the label at the rear of your TV)...Turned on my tv tonight and was presented with the replacement boards notice with advice to visit LG support.
Why do you want that information?What's your TV's model number? And what's its manufactured date (stated on the label at the rear of your TV)...
Because other people with the same model of TV built around the same time might find it useful...Why do you want that information?
Ah ok. That makes sense. My TV is model number OLED65B7V-Z and was manufactured in May 2018.Because other people with the same model of TV built around the same time might find it useful...
