I have LED lights in the shack and various other places around the house and
have never had a noise problem with any that is why I had high hopes for this
floodlight. I expect the higher power floodlight has something to do with it.
There are other LED floodlights which are lower power, but the small print says
they start only to -4 degrees, that wouldn’t work for me at this location.

Thanks for this. I've starting to have failures of 90W incandescent floods in
recessed cans in my house and am considering LED replacements throughout (26 of
them) Longer life and cost savings are IMHO illusionary; my main interests are
not having them catch fire, no RFI, reduced heat generated in the cans and
maintaining luminance. I'm open to suggestions.

Yesterday I purchased a Feit Electric PAR38 Cold Start 120 watt LED floodlight.
It?s supposed to start down to -40 degrees.
This morning I noticed a hash on 20 meters and suspicious of the new light I
turned off and sure enough, the new LED floodlight raised the hash level on 20
4 S-units, pointing the antenna away from it decreased the hash level so it
must be radiating directly out of the device. I?ll be returning it today and
exchange for one of the plain old filament lights.
