We have a pair of display cabinets which each have 2 spotlights in. They have small bulbs with a small screw thread and were quite hard to find - at least not in the usual places - when one went a couple of weeks ago - the first to go for ages.
The ones I ended up buying were a different wattage (25w v. 30w) so I bought 6, so I could replace them all, with two spare - thinking that'd be enough to last me out.
One went within a week and it's replacement only lasted a couple of days.
Is there something I should be looking at in the fitting or is that just bad luck/cheap bulbs (though they weren't, especially!), as I'm now down to 4 and the store had no more - and I don't really want to stick another one in just for it to blow, if there's some preventative action I can take first.
