In fact, GE gave me R-40 CFL's to put in my house and after a while the glass casing started to fall off and shatter all over the floor. Pretty scary when you have little one around the house. We sell a brand of bulbs that we have not seen these types of problems. Here is a link to our home products page. http://www.soslightbulbs.com/shop/customer/pages.php?pageid=77 I would suggest not buying high wattages in R-40's - stick a 16 watt and I think you will be please with the light output and less heat generation. I hope this helps. www.SOSLightBulbs.com I am in the light bulb business and YES we have seen this before.
