projectors broke! help!

well i have angel eye projectors an dthe middle (lowbeam) light bulb did'nt work so i pulled it out, and there was no bulb there..looked like it blew up in there...well i found out that it was an h1 bulb so i replaced it with a regular h1 bulb, but when i put it in, it was so dim it still looked like nothing was there. i could see a little lite shinin through but not enough to notice it from far way...any body have the same problem with projectors? any idea what's happening?

Check your fuses, the ones under the hood - pull out the one for that headlight and I'm almost certain it'll be blown. I've had this happen to me before ...

lol, probably helped that you pulled in there with the OEM headlight assemblies on and not the projectors.
