Looking for Long Life MR-16 bulbs

What do you want to sacrifice exactly? Dollars in the bank account or brightness?

I might have a couple of places I can recommend. I recently had to buy a bunch of bulbs and have a lead there, but I also have my regular guy I buy lights from.

I gotta wonder what the typical bulb life is, and how often you use these and for how long are you using these and why are your bulbs apparently not lasting as long as you'd like them to.

Our might scans are eating bulbs. The DJ bought a bunch of replacement bulbs from divine lighting ( House bulbs ), and those are turning out to be low quality. bulbs easily come right out of the ceramic housings. These lights run 14 hours / day. Its a strip club. We have 12 on 1 stage, and 4 on another. We also seem to be burning out the bulb sockets. I am starting to think that the bulbs might not be the problem, and maybe its a cooling issue. I am considering upgrading the 80mm fans on the Mighty Scans to a high RPM computer fan. I will create a new thread for this discussion
