I use the metal caged lights, it's just a hardheaded "what I'm used to"
thing.

And yes, that's the primary reason I go through so many bulbs.

But, in my defense, I'm rugged on a drop light.  Keep in mind that
EVERY vehical
I work on is getting the use of it because I work underneath most of
the time
on trannies.  (cept'n fwd cars, then 1/2 the time is underthehood)

I'm not curtious on a drop light and I'm constantly shoving it, jamming
it,
lodging it, into areas it reeeellly ought not be put in if you want one
to stay like new.  But, it makes my job easier when I can see the
hidden
brackets, bolts, and wires that the OE's like to hide nowadays.
  My SnapOn just doesn't tend to want to go places that I can shove
that old school unit into. (without voiding the warranty lol)

Any whooo...
 In the past I tried keeping replacement cages on hand for when I
fubarred it too bad.  But, that was years ago.  I've learned to deal
with the cost of the bulbs and about once a year I cut the end off
the one I'm using, make into a dropcord, and buy me another
disposable (lol) droplight.

I'm working on 15-20 cars a week........
shoving droplights in areas that they shouldn't go.......
well....it speeds things up a bit.
To me, the cost is negligable.

akin to using Charmin,
or dollor store toilet paper.
I'm willing to pay the cost.
