Can the cold kill your headlights?

So it's been really cold the past couple days, It's been about -10F. And today one of my lights went out. Which i don't think should have happened. They are SilverStars and i've only had them for about a year.

I know why they went out. They are silverrstars and have a life of 150 hours. They suck.

I went through a few sets of Silverstars back in the day... each set failed after a year like clockwork. Absolute trash.
