| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems nwrickert: Thanks for the links. Started reading the dimmers, electronic switches, etc... And it came to me. My outside garage lights and porch lights are on a dusk/dawn w/ motion detection. When the motion is picked up, the lights go from half brilliance to full brilliance.
I turned off all the outside lights, and viola, the connection issue went away... I'm just curious as to why this started happening now, after 1.5 years of service...
Now I need to figure out which set it is...
Connections' been rock solid now for 2 hours...
Thanks for the help!!! | |

I'm glad you have identified the cause.

| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems Well I verified today that it is my outside garage lights... So, for now, they are shut off. I will have to find some new fixtures.
Shadow: Yes the lights have a photocell and also have a voltage regulator (they come on full bright when motion is detected, after a certain time, they go back to half brilliance w/o motion).
Thanks to everyone for your help!!! | |
