Hi,

I recently changed all my ceiling lights from normal circular bulb to LED round ceiling lights when I was renovating my house.

I have used those normal bulb lights for 15 years with no issues (I didn't have to change the bulb even once). However, with the LED lights, sometimes it flickers. Is this normal? My contractor also changed my normal plastic DB box (to add in few more switches). Could this cause the problem too?

Thanks!

The brighter the led, the more unreliable it is. You have to use lower wattage led, usually is driver issue, than later the led will become dimmer due to heat.

Doubts related to db box, you can put back one cfl bulb, it will not have problem.

If can replace driver, try more expensive driver. Good drover contain noise filter.
