LED control

[ptonsparky]

We put 10 - 23 watt LED wall packs on a building. The supplier had a nice timer that fits in a standard sw box. Great. One timer rated at 600w incadesent/ballast load should work. Nope. They are rated 120 watt LED. Other mfgs have similar ratings. Some photo controls are not rated for LED at all. We let the timer control a small DP contactor. Just a heads up.

I bout 7- 64 watt leds from Atlas and used there button photocells on each because they were not visible. After a month I had to replace one then another 3 or 4 weeks later. I went back and replaced them all with ones from the supply house. No issues at all.
