This is a totally different issue than the previous one (that caused all the ruckus but appears to have ended up ok thanks to you guys' decent attitudes - I was impressed). A friend of mine has a friend who's lightbulb goes pop and burns out two days after putting it into the socket. I just heard about this over the phone but it seems to me this by ordinary logic would be caused by too much current flowing through the filament, burning it out in a short time. Too much current means too much amperage of course. Thing is - why would an ordinary lightbulb in a house with 120 volts and 15 and 20 amp circuits have this problem? I guess the light (i.e. wattage of the outlet itself) could be high specially high wattage and he's putting bulbs in that are too low in wattage?
Can anybody shed any light on this?
