Yeah, I read that bit. Warranty voiding oven hacks kind of scare the crap out of me, I think it's pretty safe to say that with your average oven/oven-owner combination, you're generally not going to get above 500F. Seriously though, if you burn your house down pulling that kind of stunt I really doubt your insurance company will be amused. Over-clocking PCs is one thing, but ovens?

It's not really overclocking though - the oven already can handle those temperatures. The difference is he modifies it so he can open the door when it's doing that. It's not a fire hazard, it's a burn hazard (well obviously there is a fire hazard, but stuff burns at 500 too).

  IIRC it has been mentioned that sauce splattering onto the glass at those temps can shatter it.

    I think that's his worry, not that it actually can happen. Because if it would happen it would happen at 500 degree too.

      It can and does happen at both temperatures.

It's really nothing to worry about as long as you don't leave the oven unattended, have a small fire extinguisher handy (as any decent kitchen should), and keep small children out of the kitchen.
