Some of the newest bulbs might be getting pretty pricy. You can order them for next to nothing from China. Sometimes come two to a package so you even have a spare.
I would NEVER order a bulb from China. It'd probably be COUNTERFEIT, it wouldn't last long, and probably be made with TOXIC CHEMICALS, not to mention it'll probably catch on fire. It's bad enough big name companies have their bulbs made there but at least the factories are under USA control.
