Hi this is just a quick note to talk about compact fluorescent lamps.
In the last few days we’ve had a couple of enquiries from clients who have complained their lights have been flickering, even though they’re turned off.
After a bit of checking we found the culprit is their compact fluorescent lamps. Compact fluorescent lamps come in a range of qualities, from different manufacturers and usually, the more money you spend the less likely you are to have problems with flickering.
If you have some flickering compact fluorescent lights don’t panic, your house is not haunted, they will flicker from time to time under certain circumstances. If you do have a problem with this try changing to a different brand of lamp or try moving the lamp to somewhere else where it’s not going to be a problem if it does flicker occasionally.
If the problem persists you may have to change to a different style of lamp, perhaps a halogen or LED. For more information about lighting and for money saving ideas, check our website, www.manceelectrical.com.au
