They NEVER connect properly in fittings.


It's you. There's a knack to fitting them - instead of shoving them in
with all your might, insert gently until you feel it 'click' into place.
Push it in further (which you can do on some sockets), and you'll end up
with a bad contact.

You could try a spray of WD40 on the socket, but make sure the power is
off - dunno if WD40 is conductive but I wouldn't like to try it.

And yes, as another poster said, don't touch the quartz envelope with
your bare hands. Use a tissue or a plastic bag.
