I bought my 150 and 200 watt incandescent bulbs and others from AMAZON. I use the 150 in a lamp post that holds two 150s. they were pretty reliable. I bought the last batch on October 30th and three of the four have blown so far. Below is a photo of the last burnout. I sat right there and heard a pop and hiss. Looking up, I saw a foot-long flame burst from my lamp. The lamp base and socket have melted. the previous burnout had exploded when this one exploded, but not the flame. They were made in Hungary, my 200s that I use in the garage are made in China. It seems like GE's quality has dropped drastically in the last year as they've been doing a pretty good job changing them about every six months which has been bearable considering the wavy ones that cost a ridiculous amount of money, didn't last much longer. Ten years, REALLY! so i pay 0.10 extra per year. You can see in the photos that even though the outlets were rated at 150 watts, the heat generated by the bulbs melted them. The other socket had a small metal soldering point that fell out when I checked it had come loose due to the heat. If this lamp had a flammable shade, who knows what would have happened. Recently, when we were away for almost a week, we had this light with a timer. I've just bought twelve packs, it goes without saying they're coming back.
