Lights of America

[JeffReef]

Is there anyone here having problems with their Lights of America fixture? I ran my fuge light on reverse cycle for two months without a problem until now - It turns off on its own after a few hours.

At first I thought it was the timer. Well it's not since I removed the timer and it still turns off after a few hours.

Then I thought it was the photo sensor that's tripping it off. Well, I removed the sensor and the problem is still there.

Any ideas? Maybe it just needs to be replaced.

Thanks!

hmm oddd.
I have been running both mine for months now and no problems..
I wonder if it's the ballast or the bulb..

It could be the ballast. But it lights up everytime I plug it in so I don't know. The fixture is inside the stand and gets pretty hot. I wonder if there is a temp sensor that trips it off for safety.

Jeff,

Did you get it from me? If you did, I'd be more than happy to replace it with a new one (assuming Costco still have them).

Thanks, Minh.

Actually, my brother got it for me. I have (2) more units so I'm still in good shape. I just want to try to figure this one out before I give up and replace it.
