Uh, did you replace the bulb?


Indeed. This sounds like an intermittent filament. Assuming it's an
incandescent lamp.

Is this a fluorescent lamp? It could be the bulb, or the "ballast".


I haven't seen too many 18w incandescent lights ...


you've never seen any Xmas lights? they're less than 18W per bulb.
and any TEK scope with front panel lights;less than 18W incandescents.
same for any flashlight...
then there's my TENSOR lamp,with a 12v 12W bulb.
