Tim Fischer Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Can anyone verify if it's safe (or not) to use the lightkeeper pro with a string of lights connected to an LOR channel, via the method where you remove a bulb and plug the socket into the LKP, then use the clicker to 'revive' the string?I'm a little paranoid about blowing triacs (or worse) and have never done it. Just wanted to check if I had cause to worry...-Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Push Eject Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Well, I cannot speak to its safety, but I have done it with no ill effects.Of course with my track record around here lately... Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieIt may work but I would not do it. It seems like the high voltage that it send could damage things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Fischer Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Thanks-- just wanted to make sure I wasn't being overcautious.-Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFancher Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I used it once on my icicle lights not really thinking of the LOR feeling the spike. I fixed my problem without harming the LOR but I'll probably not do that again. Next time Ill by pass the LOR with a temporary Extention cord. :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Push Eject Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Boy, it sounds like I got lucky. Dan mentioned thousands of volts from one of those things...I'm definitely not using it plugged into my LOR controller again.Glad you brought this up, Tim!Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
