I was working on a friend's game for him, and lately have had to replace a bulb on 1 of the pop bumpers after only having been in the game for a short time. Can anyone explain how 1 of the pop bumper lamps can be perhaps maybe be getting higher voltage or something else that would drastically shorten lamp life?

Quoted from PghPinballRescue:

Dumb question, but did you test the voltage with a meter to see what it is?
You should be getting 7VAC +/- a bit.

The game is at a friends house, going back soon (with meter) and will check.
