Hello,
I recently installed a wired doorbell and it works very well indeed.
However... I was leaving the house in the dark (and it was VERY dark) this evening and pushed the bell push in order to hear how loud the doorbell would be to callers. I was shocked to see that the bell push briefly lit up as I released the button. As it is not an illuminated bell push (I have the unit installed with batteries) and owing to the fact that the light had a blue tint, I am assuming that the light I saw was in fact a spark within the bellpush. There was no spark as I pressed the button - only on release. In fact the spark isn't visible in daylight - it has to be VERY dark!
In all other respects the unit appears to be working perfectly well and the spark isn't apparent during daylight but can anybody tell me what could be causing the spark or is this normal? I had checked the bell push very carefully before securing everything in place and the connections appeared to be good.
Thanks in advance,
Daz
