Regarding the high line voltage, I switched to 130 volt light bulbs. That seemed to do the trick. Now of course, I'm switching to CFL's. They don't seem to be affected by high line voltage. At least not the ones I have had running here now for more than two years. One upside of the high line voltage is that the electric motors love it. Motors such as those used in refrigerators, air conditioners, well pump, etc. They start fast and run cool.
