When a lamp blows it can offten short circuit therefore if the switching component be it a relay or triac is not big enough to substain the extra load will become damaged. usually welded together making the new lamp stay on. Also switching filament lamps on and off regually shortens the lamp life so lamps on PIR detectors don't last that long. Acetek electrical manufacture a dusk to dawn to fit into outside lights its call Cyclops 232 and is used in the outdoor signage industry because it is reliable. you maybe able to fit this to your outside lights. |
