flickering Led spot lights.

[aptsys]

Best suggestion would be to fit some better lighting, rather than spots

If your dimmers are aurora then yes, bound to be the lamps. Check what dimmer modules are on the dimmers before you spend loads of money though, they might not be any good for LEDs no matter how good the brand

Well I have tried the lamps on a normal on/off switch and no flicker at all. I done them for a friend of mine, as a favour
But I don't want her to spend loads of money on branded LEDs and then find out it's the same issue. ( even though she's not being charged -_- ) but at the same time in my house I have the same model dimmer 6 aurora 4w lamps and they dim perfectly!
Really don't know what to do
Note the dimmer is compatable with LEDS.

Cheers

I don't see how fitting a standard switch is going to give any answers. The LEDs will likely work perfectly fine on a normal switch, but that's not the issue. The issue is with them being dimmed

 

[Iggifer]

In that case, buy decent LEDs for the smaller of the rooms first, see how that goes, and then take it from there

Note the dimmer is compatable with LEDS.

While true, that does not mean it is compatible with all LEDs. Only those which are designed to be dimmed with that type of dimmer.

Enlite get my vote. A subsidiary of Aurora and they're the best lamps I've seen. About £6 even in the likes of Toolstation

Well, i fitted 6 led down lights for a mate of mine today, guess what ? He had bought Enlite lamps ! Thanks Iggifer your right, the warm white looks, well, warm !

Iam a convert. No dimmers fitted, so don't can say how they behave when dimmed.

p.s. good price £6each

 

[Iggifer]

Glad you a) like them and b) didn't have to spend your own cash to find out! The cool white is a good colour too, not too blue

 

[deadshort]

I will give the cool white a try.

Thanks again for the recommendation.

Maybe so but BAS was right in this respect, if a bit annoying at times. I miss him.

 

[EFLImpudence]

You never know, if you apologise to him he may magically reappear.

Yes, bloody annoying, but he had a pulse!

At the moment it's like dropping in to visit Hinge and Bracket !

Do the ones that flicker have two-way switching?

So I returned the dodgy Chinese leds and replaced them with Philips. Got them at John Lewis for a good price. 6 for £25. ( just got them and replaced them this morning) So far so good. However the client decided she wanted two way switching in the corridor.. Now the two way is flicking .
