Default Dominator dual headlights problem

I use the dominator twin headlights. But when I have taken my bike out for a ride with high revs I have allways blown out one bulb, and it is the first one in the serial connection. Any tips about that?

im not an electrian but you might need some type of resistor in line, maybe the new light is rated for a lower amount of power coming in to it.
did the lights come with good instructions and specs??

Im using 12v 55w, same as original. Difference is H4 instead of H7. Original the Hi and low beam are seperate but now they are on same circuit. It should not be any problem and it wasnt a problem last year. I checked that the bulb and headlight are thight to eliminate vibrations. So now I am thinking maybe the alternator is blown.
