Ok dokey. Sounds like that's a non starter then. I've heard good things about night breaker bulbs before

I just put some Osram nightbreaker unlimited bulbs in mine- seem much better than the standard ones, be interesting to test them properly when I go lamping at the weekend

You will probably find the standard 65/40 halogens are "brighter" than 100s, because the super thin wiring has such a high resistance that you will be lucky to see more than about 10V at the bulb :ohmy:
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there
