Motion Sensor blowing bulbs
I have a Heath-Zenith motion sensor on my garage. It has two bulbs. recently, one side keeps blowing bulbs. can't figure out whats going on. Any ideas?
Thanks John

First I would suspect the bulbs you are using. Try getting some quality, brand name bulbs rated for 130 volts.

If the fixture uses a standard screw base lamp try pulling the center contact (With the power off of-course!) to make the bulbs make better contact with the socket as a loose connection can arc and that can cause the bulb to not last as long as it should
