<p>I have seen this with the dimmer below 50% with well/transfer pumps. I only use the costco FEIT bulbs/CREE and no issues on XW and CSW. Avoid dimmers or use less than 30% of dimming. I don't think the bulb being dimmable is the issue either. It is more apparent at night when you dim an LED. Tell them not to do laundry at night <img title="Wink" src="cid:smiley-wink.gif@sti.net" alt="Wink" border="0" /> Good Luck</p>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0 0 0 .8ex; border-left: 1px #ccc solid; padding-left: 1ex;">Greetings Esteemed Wrenches;<br /> <br /> We have a customer with a new high efficiency washer running on a Magnum <br /> inverter. When it is in wash cycle, the LED lights flicker rhythmically <br /> with its operation. We can see a corresponding distortion of the wave <br /> form on an oscilloscope, but RMS voltage is steady at 117 vac. It does <br /> not cause trouble with incandescent lighting, and the washer works fine.<br /> <br /> My questions:<br /> <br /> 1) Has anyone else seen washing machines causing trouble with lighting <br /> or other loads?<br /> <br /> 2) Is there any line filtering available that might cure this?<br /> <br /> 3) Are some LED lights more prone to issues? We are considering <br /> having the customer switch from the Home Depot cheapo LEDs to Phillips <br /> or other higher end bulbs.<br /> <br /> 4) Could it be related to the bulbs being dimmable? Should we be using <br /> non-dimmable bulbs?<br /> <br /> As always thanks in advance for your invaluable input and comments.<br /> <br /> <br /> -- <br /> Ray Walters<br /> Remote Solar<br /> 303 505-8760<br /> <br /> _______________________________________________<br /> List sponsored by Redwood Alliance<br /> <br /> List Address: <a href="mailto:RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org">RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a><br /> <br /> Change listserver email address & settings:<br /> <a href="http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org">http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org</a><br /> <br /> List-Archive: <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html">http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html</a><br /> <br /> List rules & etiquette:<br /> <a href="http://www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm">www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm</a><br /> <br /> Check out or update participant bios:<br /> <a href="http://www.members.re-wrenches.org">www.members.re-wrenches.org</a><br /> </blockquote>
