my bulbs and LED's always break after a while due to heat and/or amperage
i think i'll replace them with a high heat resistant LED strip connected to the outer socket and just put a resistor in the inner sockets

Your suppose to plug them in all the way and then pull them out slightly. This way they won't over heat. Asianoptics is the only way to go. I've had them in for almost a year and no problem.
