We have a light fitting with three lights that take a smaller type of

they should. Does anybody know why? Is the wattage too high or too low?
Or is there a problem with the fitting itself? Do I need to call an
electrician?


Aprox how often do they fail? How expensive are they? Please post a
pic of the bulb or a more specific description.


Seems to blow every couple of months. They're just the normal priced
globes. Can't post a pic, no camera. I'm from Australia, I don't know
where you are from, we may have different manufacturers so I don't know if a
description would be useful. It is a Phillips brand 25 watt globe.
