    Lithonia LED area light

    These lights are just wonderful and we have enjoyed them but last week, my renter said his would only come on if he tapped it with a stick. I replaced it and opened it, half expecting Lelon or CapXon. Very much surprised to see all Rubycon low ESR types. Now to trouble shoot it....

      that usually indicates a bad/cracked/cold solder joint. try checking and reflowing the solder joints.

          low-temp hot-air rework?
          Don't buy those $10 PSU "specials". They fail, and they have taken whole computers with them.

          My computer doubles as a space heater.

                  just wanna add that the joint could have cracked due to poor handling in transport or by a careless customer/storeman. ooops... dropped it! shit happens sometimes...

                          It was the photo electric switch. Power supply was fine. Disappointingly low quality switch.

                                      Lithonia Lighting versus Light of America Compact Fluorescent product quality
                                      by sam_sam_sam
                                      I have a Lithonia Lighting 65-Watt Gray Hardwired Compact Fluorescent

                                      I also have back when Light of America had these light bulbs available for yard lights

                                      The issue with Light of America was the blast boards had all most certain board failure while bulbs hardly ever fail

                                      While the Lithonia lighting fixture has all most certain bulb failure

                                      So I have modified the Lithonia lighting fixture to accept the Light of America light bulb and see how long this will last

                                      I have only had this light fixture for not more than a year if it...

                                      Problem

                                      This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....
