I have had this issue on an 850. Knock on wood but I am in a stable period of more than a year with the same bulbs. Couple of possible issues. Check your lens for a crack. Water will cause them to blow. I didn't think this was true but it appears to help: don't handle the bulb with your bare hand, the oil can cause the glass to overheat, use a glove. How old is your battery, surges will knock the fillament out.

Good luck.
