Hi, I'm hoping some of you lighting experts can help me with this problem. I'm in charge of replacing burnt lightbulbs in an apartment complex. I have found that the light bulbs are burning out within 2-4 weeks. I am putting in regular 60 watt incandescent bulbs in the round soft white style and the clear torchlight style with standard base. I am new to the contract so I don't know if this is a winter thing due to cold weather and temperature change upon lighting a cold bulb or the fixtures and or wiring is bad and it's frying the bulbs prematurely. I ordered about 60 130 volt bulbs from sylvania and hopefully these will be more durable. I have also noticed that my home exterior fixtures burn bulbs out quickIy ( I also have cheap fixtures) live in Maryland so it can get cold at night, usually not below single digits though.
Any advice on a bulb that will last and maybe as to the couse of the premature burn outs?
Thanks, David
