Electrical Issue II

Mike from Eric Electric came over yesterday to check out our bulb-failure issue.

He checked all the switches and outlets to see if any of the wires were loose. None were. He checked the voltage and it was a steady 121V. We have good electricity in Milwaukee.

A remaining variable was the bulbs. He replaced all of the standard incandescent floods with halogens. It's a more robust bulb with a longer design (2,500hrs vs 2,000)life. A bad batch of bulbs could have happened, but it is not a satisfying solution to the problem.

Mike was very helpful and resolved a couple other issues I had. We will see what happens.

Hopefully this is the end of it.
