So I figured out today why I like to keep an extra bulb on hand for little Trevor! Mine burned out after about 8 months. Bummer it didn't last 12, and it's 2 months past the warranty. Sure am glad I bought a replacement one a couple weeks ago. Now I have to order another replacement just in case...
Any ideas how to prevent this form happening in the future, or did I just have some bad luck? This one was a Mega Ray. The replacement is a T-Rex. I'm buying another T-Rex just because it's a bit cheaper and I have found info saying they are the same bulb. I don't have a preference between the two. Came downstairs this morning to find the bulb dark. It sounds burnt out too. New one had an hour or two to burn in before the little guy was awake thankfully. Must have burnt out when the timer came on this morning.
