I didn't have this problem that Dale had with the ThinkLux LED Direct wire
bulbs in
our workshop 16 x 24 feet with 6 recessed 2 bulb fixtures and 4 more in the
garage. The shop lights are all on one switch. I do have .01 disc capacitors
in
each of those fixtures from each side of the AC line to the
Ground-Bare-Green-Wire. Those caps I put in years ago and helped slightly with
the noise from the Ballasts and old Florescent bulbs. Maybe they made the
difference for me vs the problem that Dale observed when he chained his
fixtures?
