I had a lamp like that once. It was great for a week, then, for two more
weeks it went on every time you walked past it. Next, it went on and off
by itself, no need to even walk past it.

I tossed it but am happy it didn't cost me $180 and a days work every
time it misfired:-)


I bought mine in 1986 and still use it. How would you loose a days work?

I'd have to stop what I'm doing, go out and buy a new blade and a saw
stop mechanism, then install it. Have no idea whats involved removing
the destroyed mechanism, and installing the new one, but it would not
take many false fires to not want to use one, just on the time and expense.
