Freecurve lost program – Energy saving lightbulbs ?
Hi,
My Mum has a Handicare Freecurve from 2022 that keeps losing it’s program, needing an engineer to come out and re-program it (at £100 a time !). The engineer says it is caused by energy saving light bulbs causing interference.
I changed her light bulbs to some old incandescent bulbs last night but in the long term that will be pushing up my Mum’s electricity bill.
I can accept that any electrical device could interfere with remote controls, but why would that cause the chair lift to lose it’s program ? What else could cause that ? Faulty smartcard ? Faulty cmos battery etc. ?
I am not an engineer and I have no intention of touching her stair lift, but I would like to know if my Mum is being ripped off.
Thanks.
