Hello all, i installed some downlights and low en lamps for my mother in law about six months ago (i am a registered spark) since install the lamps just keep blowing. To start with i thought it was the fitting as it was an old style for this manufacturer which had a fixed lamp holder way back i the depths of the casing, they were a pain in the preverbial to fit and everytime i took one out, the lamp holder was blackened from shorting. I pursuaded the wholsalers to let me swap them for the new style with a floating holder and lamp clasp but this has not done it. I have done several jobs where the lamps in the downlights, be it low ens, standards or LEDs and they all seem to last about the same length of time i.e nowhere near the stated hours according to the manufacturer. Has anyone else had this problem and has anyone found a solution yet. I know that sometimes the supplied lamps are naff but i've swapped out for reputable brands too and it's always the same.
Thanks
