Interior Ceiling light bulbs

When we took delivery of our Washington, I noticed our first overnight, three lights burnt out. I purchased a ten pack on Amazon and started replacing. I know you do not touch these bulbs with bare fingers, they will burn out immediately, so I always wear disposable medical gloves, and I assumed the reason the original lights burning out so quickly, was an assembler using bare fingers to install the bulbs, once I replaced ALL the bulbs this would go away. WRONG!
I a just finished my second ten pack of JC G4 bulbs that are shipped in very good packaging.
Has anyone experienced this problem?

I ordered some LED bulbs from Alibaba Express today. I will post when I install and let you know how that goes. Price is right, 10 for $9.67 free shipping.

Just make sure you get ones that are bright enough
Mine I believe are 360 lumens

We are in the process of replacing all of ours with LEDs. So happy with them! We are working with the M4 site. http://www.m4products.com/elite-series/ We went with Natural White. Replaced the sconce bulbs, the pendent light bulbs as well as the ceiling lights in all rooms. Highly recommend! Brighter then we had, cooler to the touch and draws so much less power.

Alibaba....bit of a risk, but heck, could you post a link..10 bucks seems worth the chance.
