Hi ED.

Hope the leads help,

Glad you are on top of the rampant sources of RFI that is coming out of China by the shipload.

Thanks. I am going to take a trip there next week and buy one to test. I'd 
really like to know whether these meet the FCC limits or not.  Interference 
reports give me a good excuse to do that. :-)

I went to my local Lowes and didn't find one.   Does anyone have a model 
number?  Was it really at Lowes, or maybe some other store?

Ed, W1RFI

Greg,
suggest getting the product manufacturer and model no. of the device in
question and submit this to IC. Request a response.
We have them here on our street but fortunately a ways down the road
from us (so far). Let us know what response you receive from IC.

73,

Beware- like most electronic junk allowed to be sold today, the new "laser Christmas 
lights" that project various patterns on your neighbours decorated house, are RFI 
buzz machines.

Mine (and the ones up and down the street) take care of killing most the HF 
spectrum and includes some nice AM BC Band swaths of frequencies as well.

Mine and units were sold by Lowes , and have a plastic lens globe on the front 
of the fixture, which is pointed towards the desired surface to make a pretty 
pattern.

The  "destructive" RFI range heard on my portable radio was + 40 feet.  Seems 
these lights are the new, popular effect this year and most folks may be surrounded by 
installations.

Unfortunately,  my antennas are also all within a 25 foot separation of the 
neighbours, and the general increase in noise floor from the residential area 
won't make for a Merry Christmas.
