Revisiting the Loud Incandescent Light Bulb

I installed this light bulb in September of 2025. It worked properly, but made a vibration sound during operation, up until January 2026. It started requiring a bang to get it to work, then it just stopped staying lit. I broke open the bulb to find out what the issue was. As I suspected, it was a defective bulb and there is nothing wrong with the fixture. One of the leads was not properly welded to the halogen capsule, which caused vibration and arcing during operation. I was able to fix the bulb and put it back in place. I'm sure some life was taken out of the bulb by the number of times I whacked it to get it to come on, but I suspect it will continue to run for several months or more.
