Some of the problems people encounter, especially with the cheaper units, are easily fixed if the instructions are read closely. We have three units that were very erratic. Upon reading the 4 page, small print, instruction sheet I came across a short statement kind of buried in the text. It said "FOR TUNGSTEN BULBS ONLY" and we had CFL BULBS in the fixtures. We made sure that each fixture had at least one, low wattage, tungsten bulb in it along with the CFL's, and low and behold all units are now working properly, consistently. It seems that the bulb resistance is used as a part of the electronic circuitry and the non-tungsten lights are very different.
