Mabe somebody touched it while you not looking
I have used a few that have had finger prints on and not had a problem so i think its just a case of bad luck in this instance.
I have touched a few with sweaty heads as well without incident so although im not encouraging any one to be anything then clinical with them i wouldnt want everyone panicking at the slightest little thing
They are generally quite resilient things.

ok, ive just received my new mh bulb and it broke after about 18 hours!! i was extra careful this time and didnt even touch the bulb during application (i used a dish cloth).
Im pretty sure no moisture is reaching the bulb and yes its a 400 watt ballast and fits both mh and hps. I asked charlie at charlies hydro before purchasing the ballast and he sed this setup should work perfectly aswell as leave a little room if i decide to switch to 400 watt bulbs.
ive sent the bulb back and should be receiving a new one in a few days so i will keep all updated.
and yes the yellowing of the leaves was due to lack of nutrients.. ive applied the required amount of canna nutes to my res but was wondering how often i should add fresh nutes as my EC meter hasnt arrived yet (thats what i get for buying from hong kong) also, i only want to be replacing my res water after every harvest so have gone and bought myself a 3.5 watt air pump to keep the water fresh and oxygen charged.
sorry if i sound a bit noobish any help would be wickedd

400W Ballast needs a 400W Bulb
Unless it's a digital dimmable ballast then you could possibly just about get away with using the wrong bulb

Bulbs fail and when they do they do it it's not a good thing, I was looking for a bulb not long ago and it was showing how bulbs explode and fail, as long as the out side glass doesn't brake your ok, but if a bulb brakes all the way then the grow room needs to be vented and cleaned after it's vented and is some what to clean it.
you need a new ballast, and let me guess the guy at the grow shop said "its a little more expensive, but its better and you can go to a better bulb" he's either incompetent or screwed you for a few extra quid
