Haunted Christmas Tree - Help!!!

[SteveO]

Our tree lights are switched on and off via a remote control. Recently they have been behaving very strangely. As an example,  last night they switched themselves off at 10pm with no input from us, and just now they switched themselves back on, again with no intervention. Logic says that they are being affected by another remote control source, most likely from a neighbour's house, although the nearest house is a fair distance away. Has anyone else had a similar experience and is there anything I can do about this?

Sensible suggestions welcome!

Cheers

Steve

I had the same with a wireless door bell,  you should be able to change the channel on the plug,  usually 4 to choose from.

You could stand outside and switch your lights on and see if a neighbours lights come on as well.

I have a set of lights that have an inbuilt timer, once switched on they run for 6 hours, turn off, then restart themselves 24 hours later, just wondered if yours have a similar feature?

We all doomed!

Our wireless doorbell rings if a Vauxhall car is remotely locked or unlocked within about 50' of the reciever. Drives the dog wild!

Sometimes  the tv flashes up,what programme we are watching.Yet we have not toached anything. As I said we are all doomed.

"Sensible suggestions welcome!".....A bit of a tall order  

We have three sets of lights on our tree, one set that came with it and two we added. when I first put them on they were just on and now they're flashing, the ones that are flashing are the ones that came with the tree (I can't stand flashing lights) have tried all the different combinations on the button pad thingy but they just won't stop

Armageddon is upon us Lol

You may be right Gracie. I went outside and pressed the "off" button and the lights went off in my neighbour's house. Ohhh the power!!!!!!

Can you imagine the NBN members all living in the same town? It would make a TV series although most probably already been done?

[Chelsea14Ian]

Gracie how about blue flashing lights?

[YnysMon]

I must have been too busy doing other stuff (like cooking) over Christmas. Am slowly catching up..and am in tears (of laughter). Oh what I missed!

[Islander]

I behind on this thread too. I've just taken all our lights down. Let's hope they all work again next year( this year ).

Gracie, I thought you would like flashing lights, especially if they were blue..

So now it's time to look forward to Easter and all that chocolate .
