Re: LD11 + low voltage halogen

["Richard Lockyer" <richard_lockyer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I bought the 150W ones from Screwfix. I think that the manufacturer
was Skot. When testing these with a plug in lamp module I could get
them to switch on, but once on they would not switch off or dim.

They also stopped all other X10 stuff in the house from working :-(
Maybe the LD11s have some filtering to prevent this.

Screwfix were kind enough to refund my money, and I bought Osram ones
which seem to work perfectly .
