HS210 light switches off with new light fixture

2020-01-18 15:42:22

Model: HS210

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.5.8

HS210 was working well, but I changed my light fixture and now it shuts itself off.

I was originally using it with a single 9 watt LED bulb.

The new light fixture came with three 5 watt LED bulbs, and it works fine.

When I change to three 9 watt LED bulbs, the light goes out after a few seconds, but the control for the switch still shows it as "on."

Is there a problem with my device or installation, or is there a limit on how much current the switch can support?

@Snarltoof

The HS200 has operating specs of: 5A, 600 W Incandescent, 600 W LED It would depend on the Load from these new bulbs. Since the 5W blubs worked it is likely an input issue. Can you provide more infromation about the bulbs themselves?

@Carl

The 9watt bulbs are Feit Electric LED Bulbs, 120VAC/60hz 93ma. They are warm white, 3000k, 800lm.

I tried several combinations, and found that the light stays on with 2 of the 9w bulbs and 1 of the 5w bulbs.

That is odd, on the face of this i do not see why the bulbs should not work. I have forwarded this to the smart home team. I'l let you know when i get a response.

@Carl

sounds good, thanks. I wonder if there's some factor that I'm missing.
