Hi Max,
both the Huyandais we have were bought new and the problems were from day one. I have pretty much given up now as I have exhausted all ideas I have, I just accept the fact I have to keep replacing globes. I have heard all the stories about cheap globes etc, tried the expensive and they last no longer than the cheap ones. Tried several types of LED's no better, I will just go back to the cheap ones and just keep replacing them
