I've only just noticed in the Toolstation catalogue that some of their CFL's seem to carry the warning 'not suitable for dimmers, PIR's or electronic switching'.
I'm aware that dimmers & CFL's don't get on.
Not seen this warning in the TLC book.
Recently had a case where a lady wanted a PIR light
I'm assuming the CFL has damaged the electronics in the PIR somehow?
No mention of CFL's in the instructions whatsoever, so its going back.
I'm assuming that CFL's aren't compatible with PIR's, but I'd just like to know why?
