Default Crap Narva/Osram H4 headlight globes

Has anyone else experienced a short lifespan from the low beam filament inside these crap Narva(Osram Bi-Lux H4 globes,Made in Germany)....I have just replaced one of these again for @ the 10th time on my XR4(last globe lasted 3 months).The above globes are fitted to car from factory,but this time I have used the equivalent Tungsram/GE Hungary H4 globes on the advice of an interstate B double truck driver(Kenworth K200 I think he said), who stated that these globes are standard fitment to Kenworth trucks as they are the only brand that lasts in these heavy trucks.I had the same problems with Narva/Osram tail light globes constantly blowing in my EF Xr6 about 12 years ago,replaced with a Tungsram globe and the tail lights are still working 12 years later.Hopefully wont have to replace this globe again for a long time.And Narva/Osram know where they can stick their crap globes......
