Dangerous - EXPLOSION AND LAMPSHOT! lack of quality?

I've used them before with no problems but the latest from Revain worked here. This is the type of lamp that works with the lamp. 3 months later, one night, I only turned it on for a few minutes before it suddenly burst, exploded and flew out of the lamp like a rocket! Very dangerous! It exploded and crashed into the wall, cutting my arm with one of the flying pieces of glass. Luckily no one was in front of him as he fired straight from the base. The base of the lamp was broken and was still in the socket. So basically the lightbulb blew up and exploded. Be careful. I've used this type before with no problems, but the quality can degrade. If that happens again. I'll have to get another bulb with a different bulb. I've never seen a lightbulb explode like that. I have to wonder if this product is made in China as all the products that used to be good quality are now usually made in China of lesser quality. This is the case with many products these days.
