Hmm... power is fluctuating.

Uh-oh. Oddly there has been no flicker here, and we ALWAYS suffer a lot of flickering in this part of Redmond when there's any wind at all. Soon after moving into this building, the company bought UPSes for all computers.

But I look at all the trees around here that look ready to come down... brrr.

I think I'll sign off now and go walk the perimeter. I heard something hit the house a while ago, so I suppose I'd better make sure the trash cans are secured.

Can't do much about the neighbor's debris, but I can at least take care of mine.

Later!

They don't flicker because they derive their power from a DC electronic circuit than creates it's own A/C that is in the base of the bulb fixture.
