New Led bulb

[bmiller]

I'm going to try one of the new Led Dual Band bulbs in my daughters room. Being a teenager, she has a tendency to fall asleep at night with her light on. I installed one and set it up so it will go off at 11:00pm and then back on again at 7:00am the following day. She may on occasion actually shut the light off before going to sleep. Does operating the light switch mess up the operation of the bulb via the program.

If she shuts it off with the light switch before 11:00 pm and doesn't switch it on until 8:00 am the next morning, will the light come on? I'm not sure if removing power to the bulb will cause it to lose it's mind.

Thanks again Ladies and Gentleman.

The LED Bulb should not misbehave but of course it can respond to Insteon commands when power is Off. Best approach is to replace the mechanical switch with an Insteon switch. The wires to the LED Bulb are retasked to provide unswitched power to the LED Bulb and the Insteon switch linked to the LED Bulb for bulb control (Red wire capped on Insteon switch).

The lamp switch is an inline thumb wheel. The only control other than this will be the

iSy timer activating. I guess I'll leave it as is for now and see how it works.

Wrap electrical tape many times around that thumb wheel to disable it (make sure it's on first =p). Then a remotelinc2 can be used to control the bulb...mount it anywhere in the room or just leave it next to the lamp.
