Hey all. I've got some of those newer light bulbs, the ones that are like 5-10 times more efficient than the normal ones and are usually built in a spiral shape on top of a piece which contains the electronics. Now, the issue I have is that I'm apparently getting interference or something in certain situations.
For example, when I put 2 of these bulbs in my ceiling fan in my living room, the bulbs flicker very badly. However, if I use 1 new bulb and 1 old incadescent bulb, I get no flicker at all. This doesn't make any sense to me because I've got multiple other new lights in pairs or 3's-4's in other rooms that have no trouble. I've tried turning off electronic devices in the room and even in my office, but it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?
