Maybe someone here can tell me what I'm missing or verify that I'm correct, or even that lightbulbs are extrememly defective!
Anyway, here's the deal. The lone bulb in our fridge finally goes out, prompting my wife to think the whole thing is broken but thats another story. Anyway, I pick up a package with two bulbs in it and try to plug them in. One works, one does not. I initially think that maybe one socket is bad, thus the reason for us only having one light as far back as I can recall. However, when I trade the bulbs out the good one is still good , the bad one still bad. I almost said to heck with it and threw the bad one out. Afterall, we'd had only one forever anyway. But, changed my mind and took them back to Walmart, who took them without questions. So, I buy a new package and return home, hoping to be able to see the leftovers for the first time in a week. I open the package and screw both lights in to find... nothing. NEITHER of the latest two 'new' lights work. So, this brings me to the question. Is there something I am missing that makes this other than a 75% failure rate for these lightbulbs? I'll probbaly just have to take em back AGAIN and try one more time but I am shocked that this is so much work!
Maybe I put them in backwards. :twitcy:
