Our city began rolling out LED lights more than eight years ago.
Soon after dozens to hundreds of these new lights began to output a purple hue?!?
If you’ve ever seen a old school florescent tube light emit the same light colour. You know it has a whole bunch of other random colours mixed in with the (perceived) purple colour.
This specific colour induces eye strain and headaches . . . After this, the so called latest LED generation of lights began to strobe!!
Anyone who knows people with special health issues this can induce a seizure!
Later found out all of these lights were covered by the manufacturer under warranty. As expected the hundreds of lights turned into thousands of lights that needed to be replaced!
It’s been five years since I reported one specific street light having the problems I noted up above.
The 311 ticket indicates it will be serviced and replaced in 2025 - 2026?!?!
