I have a touch mode light dimmer (home built) that had a triac blow. Replaced it with a bigger one and it went again after a long time of working perfectly.
Found out that the flood light bulb I used developed a short circuit at the moment it expired of old age and took the triac with it. Both triacs blew while the light came on at full setting (no dimming).
Perhaps fitting a fast blow fuse in series with the triac might help. I fitted an even bigger triac, IMO a much better solution then two triacs in parallel.
