    Re: day night lighting

    I have one 80w on a dimmer switch and a 100w on a rheostat and got 5 years on my last che so milage may very and I have also heard some people get much shorter times from theres. I think it's the fluctuating output of a thermostat that kills them and a dimmer is constant till adjusted so less fluctuation. My thoughts at least.
