I have a quick question that is killing me. Recently I purchased these lights from a friend and I can not figure out why they don't work all of the time. I bought them and they were only 6 months old with the original bulbs. four or five months later I decided to buy Hamilton 14K 250W DE bulbs and one of the fixtures ( I have two) decided not to like the bulb (actually the bulb worked for about 2 weeks until it fell out of the socket, then never working again). The bulb fits in there lose and I don't know how to fix the problem. I looked at the old bulb and compared it to the new Hamilton and the metal connecters are thinner than the old ones. Do I have to use one kind or Brand of bulbs? I have searched this and it is very hard picking out of all of the search results. Thank you for your time and any information you can provide.
