[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 377637, member: 250"] Without some actual numbers test results etc.. any comments on this thread are just speculation... What actual tests have been done..? What type of meter was used...? What are the readings results obtained...? Could be something on the blue circuit that after been switched on for a while overheats or shorts internally causing a higher current to flow through the timer contacts than designed for overloading the timer, before cooling down again..??? I may be wrong but I am reasonably certain that Blue LED's tend to draw more power than there equivalent sized non-blue LED's... unless this is a multi-function tester costing a few hundred pounds I doubt you have tested much of the wiring... SO there could still be grey areas here... or not!? basically need more info on this really... :popcorn [/QUOTE]
