LED Downlights in Summerhouse flickering

[kukapeter]

So, I had a summerhouse outbuilding (brick) built 4 years ago. Electrician installed LED downlights in the building. there are 2 rooms in there. Everything was fine until 2 years ago when a really cold spell of weather caused the lights in one of the rooms to not turn on. The other room they turn on fine.

When it is cold, I noticed that the lights will flicker in that one room, then take 1 minute after flickering to come on fully. Or they wont flicker and not come on at all. When it is hot, a warm day, they turn on.

I am a bit stumped, does anyone know what could be going on, I have changed bulbs also and also a new light switch, but still the same.

Is there a consumer unit (fusebox) in the garage?

Is it a standard light switch or dimmer.

What type of downlights are they model number ?

HI no fusebox, but an isolation switch where i can turn off all electrics, the line is coming in from the house via armoured cable.
It is std light switch, not a dimmer, make and model of downlights i would need to look. What else is interesting is that if I have a fan heater on in the room and it warms up nicely, the lighsd will think about coming on (start flickering from not working at all)

Odd

No socket outlets ?



What sort of lamps are they ?
It could be that they are supplied from one driver source ?

yes there are plug sockets for usual appliances also, if that is what you meant?
I will take a pic of the lamp, and also how do i find out if they are supplied from one driver source, let me know so i can do some searching around

Is there no means of just isolating the lights?

We can assume the lights are powered off the sockets via a fused connection unit.

So are the lights flickering directly connected to whether its cold or not?
