Default Compact Fluorescent Lamps Burn Out Faster Than Expected, LimitingEnergy Savings in California's Efficiency Program

On 1/21/2011 9:20 AM zek spake thus:

I'm using these cheap DC to DC converters on my LED's. Big trouble, I
have to go around and figure on what kind of filter I need to add on
about10. My house is a giant transmitter. My FM radio reception is
horrible. I got carrier buzz all over the spectrum. I just found this
out recently while driving my car.


What on earth are you talking about?

DC-to-DC converters? Why? Do you run your house on 12 volt batteries?

And are your radio reception problems due to RFI from your inverters? It
must be *really* bad if you're getting interference on FM!

I'm curious about your situation.
