Negative Positive
Title: Short-lived
Review: The quartz halogen Dual Brite security lights worked fine at first however, one bulb burned out fairly soon (about a year). Shortly after replacing the burned out bulb, the whole thing stopped working. When I went to replace the bulbs again, I found that the ceramic electrodes that hold each end of the halogen bulbs had crumbled causing them to burn out. I have an old yard light that uses the very same halogen bulbs that was on my house when I bought it almost 20 years ago and it still works flawlessly. I'm fortunate that the Dual Brite unit didn't short out and start a fire. These things are built to sell, not built to last. I now have to either find replacement ceramic bulb holders (fat chance) or replace the whole thing. My next security light sure as h_ll won't be a Dual Brite!
