In one of our downstairs rooms we have a light fitting which takes 4 40w halogen capsules. These don't seem to last long! Last week, two went together. I replaced them with Crompton THG940F's. Now two have gone again at the same time, including one of the new ones. Altogether I must have changed 7 bulbs in 6 months and, at £6 a pop, I'm getting poorer at an alarming rate.
Apart from throwing away the whole fitting, is there anything I should be checking? I did notice a slight flicker about 3 or 4 seconds after I turned on the light before the bulbs expired.
