ELI5. What causes some electronic, LED-based light fixtures (such as an ordinary LED strip or a light bulb) to emit a brief pulse at random, long intervals, when plugged in but turned off?
In: Engineering
If they are properly turned off like house lights then this should not happen. If they are turned off using software rather than a switch then it is possible for long wires to act as an antenna and receive wireless signals which can make fake control signals to turn them on momentarily. I had this as an issue when I was using a light strip that was supposed to respond to music. The long audio cable was picking up random pulses.
