This is puzzling. I installed these 60watt equivalent bulbs in the feed room about a year ago. The feed room lights are on five or ten minutes twice a day at chore time. It's unheated and we have had a couple of -20 degree nights since Christmas, but it's not that cold inside the barn. I noticed one light didn't come on once or twice, then this week, they both failed at once. I thought it must've been the switch so I swapped that out but still no light. I put in a couple of old 100 watt bulbs and they worked just fine.
Any theories on this? The bulbs are Phillips, from HD or Costco, so should be good quality. It seems very odd and not the long lasting solution I had expected.
