hopefully someone chimes in to help you out,.Iv got a 700 watt LED light, when its turned of ( with or without timer ) the right hand side of the light stays on, its only a very dim glow but still on, has anyone els had this problem ?
Cheers, Tom
Aparently the mains has a slight eletric leak, i THINK a ecotechnics powerstar 1 way contactor should fix it i hope but im slightly stressing out lolhopefully someone chimes in to help you out,.
i’m old school and use metal halide and high pressure sodium lights,..
Got a contactor and its solved the problemThis problem isn't unusual apparently there's 2 main reasons, #1 residual power in the circut in which it's only temporary it'll go out after a bit time?
Or the wiring is back to front somewhere and the power switch is disconnecting the neutral instead of the live allowing a bit current to get through, normally the switch cuts the live.
I've got a light controller that keeps the chips illuminated after turning off for 5/10 minutes
