yoongf 11 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 PLC? or those E27?PLC shd last few years. If PLC burn out fast, that means the ballast used is incompatible with the PLC.Ballast is designed for only 1 wattage. Cannot anyhow swap wattage with PLC.E27.. realiablility really really subjective. so far.. my opinion.. only Osram and GE seems to be stable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
