Yes - I agree with mcouvillion - the best way to change the bulbs is to not HAVE to change the bulbs. Running a 12V bulb at 8 or 9 V will GREATLY increase its lifespan. I also prefer the slightly orangey-yellow light from a bulb running dim, rather than the bright white of a full-power bulb. It will also help keep the light from shining through the sides of the buildings, if they are slightly translucent. You could also try white (or Golden White) LEDs. They are more expensive, but they produce almost no heat ,and last for a long, long time. Rob
