[Noapologies]

@Afro

kuna hizi bulb huitwa intelligent emergency bulb.

how they work;
stima zikipotea when the bulb is on,the bulb continues to stay on for a couple of hours.
stima zikipotea when the bulb is off,it will light up when you switch the lights on, for a couple of hours.

here is an example of one.

my problem;
When i switch off the lights,these bulbs,just like any other bulbs,are supposed to to switch off.
Unfortunately, once they go off they switch themselves back on after a few seconds, yet they aren’t intended to work that way. imagine umezima stima ulale,then after a few seconds unaamshwa na mwangaza bulb ikiwa imejiwasha.
The problem occurs in all rooms apart from bath room. when i rotated the bulbs wondering whether they are the problem,they still misbehave apart from the one installed kwa bafu,hata nikinunua bulbs of a different make. ya bafu nikiizima haijiwashi yenyewe.

My 1st question;
shida ni nini?

My 2nd question;
what is the solution(s)?

Ndo hiyo. And it comes with its hanger which means when charged you can carry it anywhere.

Niliuziwa na electrician wa landlady. He’d come to fix some probi in the house and I told him of my frustrations with the other bulbs. He sold/ procured them at 400each (na akakuja na receipt) nikamrushia ka fare.

Very fake counterfeit bulbs.The emergency function stops working after some few months and they become like normal bulbs. Stima ikipotea zinazima immediately.

Got this for 550 at Tuskys yesterday. Promises 3-4 hrs of lighting, and a 2 year warranty

The cheap ones are very sensitive to leakage current kwa neutral. Your bathroom has proper grounding that’s why haiwaki ovio ovio.

Thought that problem is easily solved by doing a simple PME at the point of power entry to a building.

Those lights can really freak people.
Zinaweza waka ukinyanduana ufikiri siku zako zimefika

Sasa ikiwaka ukiwa na bibi ya mtu si roho itasimama kwanza kabla ujue nini inafanyika?

Yes. Bonding the neutral with ground eliminates the problem.
