Strange Neon Night Light
Shine a flashlight on it and see if you get the same effect.

When the bathroom light is off, this neon light flickers all the time (which usually means the neon bulb is getting weak). However, when I turn on the bathroom ceiling light, the night light stops flickering. WHAT THE HECK?????? This makes no sense at all. Note: (There is not any photo cell on the night light). Gerry |

Strange Neon Night Light
You are correct. Even one of those small LED flashlights or the light
from a bic lighter make it stop flashing. WEIRD !!!! Mark ---------- On 25 Jun 2006 07:37:23 -0700, wrote: Shine a flashlight on it and see if you get the same effect.
