Hi Steve
I just wanted to express my thanks for assisting me with my faulty light fitting and being able to diagnose the exact reason as to why my light fitting was not working.
Clearly you guys know your stuff despite my ramblings that the light was in perfect working order.
I now understand that if my original unit was not working and the new unit you guys sent was not working then the only avenue left was the fitting itself.
My own stupid fault for not checking what the dippy wife purchased! 20w G4 bulbs from B&Q and we have been using them for years so in effect doubling the load. So this is the reason why as they should be 10w. This is why the light cuts out and then comes back on.
Your guidance notes although long are invaluable and I should have taken more notice of them instead of ‘skipping’ through them.
I have learnt a valuable lesson in that it is not simply a case of swapping a component and the light fitting will work. As you said on the telephone to me the product is part of many components and components will affect the product. You were spot on!
Thanks again.
David
RESPONSE
Mr Stewart,
Thank you for your kind comments which I will pass on.
Unfortunately nearly every customer in the same situation as you believes the product is faulty and no matter how many times we try to explain to a customer of this they will not listen, understand or read the Guidance Notes.
It is a regular battle that we face. It is not a simple case of buying a new product and the light fitting will work again.
We have customers sticking test meters of all types on to the terminals to which they declare the product is faulty yet they are not even testing the product correctly as such the reading shown is completely wrong.
Customers instead get very angry and it ends up with customers demanding more and more products.
However I am pleased your light fitting is now up and running.
Steve
