I'm repeating myself a lot in this thread, so I'm sorry. What fixtures are the bulbs in? Are they a generic design meant for incandescents? A huge number of fixtures out there don't allow for enough heat to convect away and the bulbs overheat.

“New bulbs came out, everybody replace all your light fixtures.”

No. I like the fixtures I have, and I have no desire to throw them in the landfill so that I can be “environmentally friendly.”
