Default Low Quality Novarossi Glow Plugs during 2005 - 2007 periods

I'm not bashing novarossi ..... infact, I'm novarossi loyal consumers with 10 novarossi engines in my rc box.

I have the feeling 2005, 2006, 2007 production of novarossi glowplugs were not long lasting as they were in 2003. The glow plugs have short life span, sometimes last only 20 - 30 minutes. It seems the glow plugs cannot stand long period of high operating temperatures ( I live in tropical country ). Lately I have to prepare 3 - 4 glow plugs for 1 day racing ( 1/10 engine ), and 4-5 glow plugs for 1/8 . Currently my glow plugs are easy to die resulted from high operating temperature ( 110 C )

Anyone have the same feeling ?
