I have owned touch lamps for several years and have never had any problems with them, but there is always a chance there could be a problem. What should you do if your touch lamp does not work? Following are some problems that may occur and their solutions: Suppose your lamp will not turn on. You need to remember that the lamp only turns on when you touch any metal surface of the lamp. The lamp will not turn on if you touch only the glass. If you have a dimmer switch installed to one or more of your outlets, this will cause problems with the touch lamp. You will need to change to another outlet that is not controlled by the dimmer switch.
It is best to use a power strip (surge protector or surge suppressor) in which to plug your lamp. Touch lamps, as well as all electrical devices in your home need to be protected from power surges. If the lamp does not turn on, check to be sure the power strip is turned on and that all connections are plugged in properly.
If you have calluses on your fingers or somewhere on your hands, and touch the lamp in the callused area, the lamp will not work. Calluses work as an insulator and the capacitance in your body will not react with the touch lamp because of them. Simply touch the lamp with another part of your hand.
A ham radio, CB transmitter or some garage door openers may emit high levels of energy and interfere with your lamp. Many people like to rearrange their rooms from time to time so this would be a good idea here--simply move the lamp out of range of these devices. Again a surge suppressor will help with this problem.
If you have carpet in your home, you may have sprayed it with anti-static spray. If so, that may ground out the signal to the touch lamp. Simply move the lamp to another area.
Cordless telephones and intercom operation may cause the lamp to change settings; this can also be corrected by using a power strip or surge protector.
Power surges over time can cause the sensor in the base of your lamp to burn out--use a surge protector and it will guard against this problem. Of course, there is a possibility that the touch sensor will simply stop working or burn out for some reason. These sensors can be replaced. Just notify the company you purchased your touch lamp from and they will see that you get a new one if the sensor burns out in the first year of warranty. If it burns out after the first year of purchase, they can be obtained for a small fee.
If the lamp does not turn on, there is always the chance the bulbs have burned out. Put them in another lamp to test them if you are not sure. If they are burned out, replace them with one-way bulbs. Also, if you do not have your lamp plugged into a power strip, bursts of electronic energy may cause the bulb to have a cracked element. This will cause the touch lamp to change settings without being touched. Just replace the bulbs with one-way bulbs. Touch lamps are definitely a wise investment for many reasons even though there may possibly be minor problems with them from time to time. Whatever problems you may have, if any, they can be easily solved.
