While the amount of lead iodide is small and exposure occurs only if the lamp is broken the following incompatibility is noted. Lead iodide is incompatible with hydrogen peroxide, strong oxidizers, sodium and potassium. Fluorine decomposes lead iodide at ambient temperatures, igniting the liberated iodine and generating much heat.
