Re: Led lights



The lamp modules allow a trickle current even when off - it's the way they
work.

Try an appliance module as this kills the current via a relay. Only the
local control to then worry about (turning back on by themselves a second
or so after turning them off). Since they have a transformer this may or
may not be a problem.

Subject:        [ukha_d] Led lights


Hi,

Just bought an LED kit

http://www.micromark.co.uk/epages/micromark.storefront/402275cb00ad3b8427400a020f0205cf/Product/View/MM18194?CatNo=91
to have a play (no electronics knowledge so couldn't go down the 'home
grown' route!).

I want to control via X10 (AM12 or LM12 prefererably - just on or off, no
dimming) but cannot get the LED's to go out (they are either on or
dimmed).
Can any of you electronics gurus explain please??

John
