I think I'll just try switching globes...
If that doesn't solve the problem, I resort to my previous answer: leave the bluddy light OFF!

I just asked because I thought there might be something simple I was doing wrong, or there might have been a simple solution, like another type of LED globe or somesuch. :roll:

Shielded conduit, Dot?
Ray, George said he just used flexible plastic conduit & was mainly for the 240v cables.
Bagmaker can you shed some more light on what you said about not all LED's are alike?

Dot, Did you ever try that RF filter that I sent you a while back?

Yes T1, That would be the item in question. I know it took a bit of finding. I just wondered if D&G ever got around to testing it?
We seem to have developed a minor pixelating issue in the Winny but I think it is related to the solar as it only happens during good sun daylight hours. I thought some type of filter might cure that.

David, George here have looked at the filter you sent, thank you, however the instructions for wiring up did not seem to fit with my electrical setup .I will revisit the filter setup and prepare for your consideration a more technical explanation and see where we go from there,

I've had to fit a number of filters around the bus.

Some from Jaycar.... some are just a combination of a electrolytic and polyester caps.

The worse was sorting out some noise which was tricking the a/h measurements in the shunt.
