I encountered a strange problem recently. I live in Canada (120V). My appartment is around 60 years old. Recently in my kitchen light didn't work. The bulb was an "energy save bulb". Replaced with another used "energy save bulb" it wasn't work properly. I took the both bulbs to another holder in another room both lights work perfectly. Measured the voltage in kitchen light holder & it was good, 122V. I tried with a tungsten bulb & it was working good. Againg tried with the above mentioned "energy save bulbs" It had same problem. No light& when I screw them on holder sometime blinks.
Now I put a new "energy save bulb" in my kitchen & it works good. Anybody have any idea.....?
