Are the florescent droplights any better?

You need to buy a rough service bulb. They are coated with a thin layer of rubber on the outside of the bulb. They hold up very well. Mine is way over 2 years old now. You can get them at Lowe's.

I've also had good luck using refridge/oven appliance bulbs along with the screw in florescent replacement bulbs in mine.
FWIW. Good Luck!

Re: Droplight ? (Skyhigh82)
I've had much better luck with the screw in bulb type halogen replacement bulbs. They seem to take a lot more abuse that standard bulbs ever dreamed off. The off side to the halogen is that they do generate more heat than a standard bulb.
