Thanks for all the input folks..i reversed the live and neutral in the walk plug and the leds now shuts off fully using a timer....it still doesnt fix the ring circuit problem but ill look into that again when ive got a circuit tester.

It worked..Eureeka!..i reversed the polarity of the plug wires. What a relief...cheers.

I haven't a clue where the circuit is reversed....but low and behold I just changed over live and neutral in the plug and the lamp switchs off completely on a timer...phew!

I got a belt last night checking for loose connections with the plug in the wall but switched off ( switched double)... so I was the voltage tester but dont know if was live or neutral. Thanks for the info. ..ill try swapping the main plug /extension leads live and neutral over....could I do...

Ok cheers ill see if there's a uk version

Yes two timers with the neutral one set 5 mins before and after the live circuit switchs to be safer.

So if that timer above is breaking the neutral circuit as well as the live surely its doing the same as adding an in line neutral timer as I've suggested...whatta you reckon?

Theve got these in oz but in the UK its 80 quid for somthing that looks like its been salvaged from Frankenstein lab

I'll have a look at the wall connections..if there good I'm temted to try the double timer method. Just thought id ask for some opinions....ha! yeh there's seems to be a lot of this occurring. I read some were unaware till late in flw. I've tried my other 6 various working timers so it's...

Seems ive got a trickle charge thru the neutral which is keeping the leds on low when the timers off ( none of my timers are double pole switch off)....i was wondering if I could break the neutral wire on the lamp power lead, connect the ends to a mains plug and put it in another timer set to...

Yep I've got this occurring with a mars ts1000 it also did it with a viparspectra p600....so if we've got a trickle voltage thru the neutral could we break the neutral wire, put a plug on the two ends and put it in another relay timer to flick the neutral off ? Then set the neutral timer 5 mins...
