bulbs randomly blow

[eng_tech_solutions]

Fitted low voltage lights - 6x50watts lights operated by one switch. Each fitting has its own transformer. After a few weeks random bulbs "blow". One or out of the six fitted.

Has anyone experienced this problem? Dodgy transformer or rubbish bulbs?

Your post is a bit unclear, you do not say how many weeks or how long they are on. Halogen lamps usually have a quoted life expectancy in hours of use, if they have not met this then you are entitled to refund/replacement & they are not a cheap item. The old saying about getting what you pay for is especially true of lamps. Doubt it is the transformers.

What is a normal price to pay for a spot light bulb please?

What brand are the lamps that are failing?

 

[eng_tech_solutions]

Philips 50Watts. Cant remember the model. Bought from BDC. They are not on all the time. Domestic use so only ON in the evening and they last up to 6 weeks.

What are the trannies rated at?

Can you accurately measure your voltage?
