HPS Lamp Cycling Explained: Why Your Outdoor Light Flickers & How to Troubleshoot It!

Ever wonder why some HPS (High-Pressure Sodium) outdoor lamps seemingly have a mind of their own, constantly turning on and off? This video dives deep into the phenomenon of "lamp cycling," a common issue with HPS streetlights, area lights, and security fixtures. We'll explain the various reasons why your HPS lamp might be cycling: End-of-Life Cycling: The natural aging process of HPS lamps and how voltage rise causes them to eventually cycle. Equipment Mismatch: The dangers of using the wrong lamp voltage or wattage in a fixture, or a faulty ballast/capacitor. Reignition Phenomenon: How even tiny power interruptions can cause a lamp to drop out and cycle. Learn about the importance of good connections! Vibration Sensitivity: How wind, traffic, or movement can affect older HPS lamps and lead to cycling (especially on bridges!). Thermal Cycling: A specific vibration-induced problem for certain HPS lamp types. Photocontrol-Induced Cycling: When the "magic eye" sensor gets confused by internal or external light sources. Understand the tell-tale signs of each type of cycling and get practical insights into what might be causing your flickering lights. Prevent costly repeat service calls and keep your outdoor spaces consistently lit! 🔗 Watch next: [Link to Photocontrol Operation & Troubleshooting Video] 🔗 Check out our playlist: [Link to Lighting Maintenance Playlist] #HPSLighting #LampCycling #Streetlight #OutdoorLighting #Troubleshooting #ElectricalRepair #LightingMaintenance #HighPressureSodium #FlickeringLight #Ballast #Photocontrol #VibrationSensitive #EndofLifeLamp
