I have 2 lights in the ceiling of my upstairs hallway. Each takes 2 60 watt bulbs. There is a glass half globe that completely covers the bulbs. Since I have moved into the house 2 years ago I have changed these light bulbs many (>10) times. I never see a flash when I turn them on, just at some point I notice that one or more bulbs are out. The lights are both on the same 3 way switch and are generally turned on and off once a day. Being put on around 5PM and turned off around 11PM. I have tried several different brands of bulbs, but not CFL or LED. The last bulb lasted about 1 week. This is a 20 year old townhouse that has no other electrical issues that I have noticed. Does this sound like a wiring issue or are the fixtures bad?
