<div dir="ltr">My guess is that the lamp is too sensitive. I find that the cheapest LED bulb from home depot flicker whether using inverter power or generator power. All other LEDs in the house work fine. Like a fool, I keep buying the cheap ones. I totally agree with Andrew "
While I can understand the need to placate clients, the days of solar martyrdom needs to end!

It seems like when the Enphase Gateway is powered up it causes the lights to freak out. Once we flip the breaker to the Gateway off the lamp operates as normalZ Interestingly, with another load (homeowner was using a dehumidifier) plugged into the circuit it seems to stabilize the lights. We isolated the problem to the Gateway specifically (ie having PV breakers on/off doesn’t make a difference). It’s a supply side connection. The house is small but we tried the lamp in multiple parts of the house and it happens everywhere. Enphase doesn’t have any ideas. Anyone have this happen to them?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I think we might just need to buy them some new lamps, but I’m also interested to understand what is happening. These are just some cheap lamps, but wondering if other household loads that are more sensitive might be affected as well? </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Adam </div>
