    usually because the lamps supplied are really cheap and nasty to keep costs down!! i usually throw them straight in the bin and install a decent brand lamp. also your not supposed to handle the bulb. i doubt its a problem with the electrical installation.

    To achieve a more even distribution of light a central light is ideal or even a multi headed halogen spotlight can achieve this. Another idea would be halogen downlighters either used on their own or in conjunction with a central light.
