You can even see the filament flapping in the inert breeze.

Is there no way to fully remove this buzzing? I know a little about the
higher speed switching techniques involved, and I also know about the
wave
deforming that some do. But is there not something foolproof? Seems

something that should have been solved by now.

Thanks

Its the bulb, try different styles. A lower watt should buzz less.

I need a lot of light here, so I have it at 100W and it is *barely* enough,
in my opinion.

Further, some bulbs will be worse than others I'm sure, but I'm looking for
a solution that hopefully doesn't muck the waveform into something that
makes filaments want to flap around.
