Akari LED Circular Lamp Causes TV Interference


While watching Game 3 of the Ginebra - Meralco Finals, I noticed that the TV had a lot of interference compared to the times I've been watching before. It turns out, my friend bought a new LED circular lamp to replace the old one.

The new LED purchased was the Akari ACL-V83ADL. Below are the specs:

  • 2-in-1 LED circular lamps
  • The light cycles from the middle to the outer and then both, when you switch it on and off repeatedly
  • One lamp is rated at 4 watts while the other is at 16 watts for a combined 20 watts when both lights are on
  • 6500K daylight rating
  • 1650 lumens rating
  • 220-240 VAC
  • 50/60 Hz
  • 1299.75 Php
Ace Hardware should reconsider allowing this product on their shelves. I absolutely DO NOT RECOMMEND the purchase of this product since it interferes with TV signal receptions. Who knows what other electronic devices are affected by this device when it is turned on. It might even be a health hazard.

The Philippines should really reconsider allowing LED products to proliferate in the local market. These new-types of lamps have not been tested long enough for people to study their long-term effects on other gadgets and human health.
