I have the same problem and have had it for a long time. The place where I am on the system has the voltage too high. Your house voltage is supposed to be 110 volts up to about 117 volts at at regular plug. Mine runs as high as 128 volts. I started buying 130 volt light bulbs. I also call my rural electric company and complain, but if they turn it down it doesn't last long because then they get complaints further down the line about low voltage. You should check with them though, sometimes they can adjust it on the transformer that feeds your house. Any cheap multimeter from Radio Shack or something can tell you if it is a voltage problem. So can your power supplier and it should be for free.
