Default Weird TV Power Issues

I agree with Tom. CFCL's are good possibilities. There are ways to
dix the problem. Basically a better repeater.

See if you can correlate to times the lights are on or even the AC
blower. Look at alternate sources of light.

You might want to try a cardboard tube over the sensor. You'll have
to have better aim, =, but it will cut off the majority of ambient
light.

For now, make sure the remote isn't causing it too. Put it in a
shoebox when your not using it.

Ceiling fans are another possibility.


Electrical tape over the IR sensor on the TVs would be one way to test for
spurious IR signal problems.
