I have a two-story family room, with two indoor flood lights in the ceiling, so it's a pain in the butt to replace them, bringing in my extension ladder.
I'm using the kind of bulb that the previous owner had, a 120V 65W indoor flood light bulb, which has a several inch diameter almost flat top. The bulb housing has a spherical cover with an opening for the bulb so that the bulb top completes the sphere. The housing can be rotated for directional lighting.
For one of the two lights, I've noticed that a replacement bulb keeps burning out within a couple of days of replacing. I just replaced the other one for the first time after we've been here 21 months, and it was there before that.
Any advice on how to resolve the one light fixture with a new bulb burning out within a couple of days would be appreciated.
