Problem with LED GU10

[silentboarder69]

Hi,
I've installed two LED GU10 lamps in a customers bathroom. They're on the same circuit as two fluorescent energy saving lamps already installed in the bathroom. So far, three LED lamps have blow (I replaced the first one, and now two have blown).
Could the motors in the fluorescent lamps be causing an over current and blowing the LEDs? Or is it a bad batch of LED lamps? I got the LEDs from TLC, and so am pretty confident they are good quality.

Many thanks,

Rick

may well be the cfl's are causing the problem. replave them with retrofit LEDs. also make sure there are no wiring faults.

Do they rotate, or do something fancy?
