What could cause touch lamps to turn themselves on?
This only happened in my dad's bedroom. Nowhere else in the house. One day out of nowhere he noticed the 3-way touch lamps in his bedroom were turning themselves on to the first brightness level. They wouldn't turn off by themselves, just on, and only to the first of the 3 ways. My dad thought it was the lamps doing it, so he bought new ones. The brand new touch lamps did the same thing! At this point, the touch lamp in my bedroom was working fine. It was only happening in my dad's bedroom. The lights turning themselves on in the middle of the night was waking him up, so, frustrated, he switched out the touch lamps with our normal switch lamps in the living room. The touch lamps work completely fine in the living room. They don't turn themselves on. So what's the deal?
Also, a couple months after this, the touch lamp in MY room stopped working. I'm not sure if it's the room, the lamp, the outlet it's plugged into... with my lamp, the touch part stopped working. I couldn't turn it off by touching it, it didn't do anything, I had to use the light switch. This happened immediately after we changed the light bulb from 60 watt to 100 watt. However, I had used 100 watt bulbs in it before just fine, so I don't think it's that. I think it's a 3-way 100watt bulb. Either way, the lamp still wouldn't turn off at all unless you hit the light switch. So he bought a new lamp for my room. It does the same thing, but this lamp has a switch on it. I'm not sure if it's even meant to be a touch lamp. He says it is, and that it was advertised as being a 3-way touch lamp. My dad says all this started happening after our electric company put in a new meter. |

I have a set of two touch lamps. We had used the lamps at another house without incident. The first night I used the lights in my new house, I left one of the lamps on when I went to bed but when I got up the next morning, both lamps were on. The next night I didn't leave either lamp on but when...
My touch lamps come on when there is no one around. The bedroom lights come on in the middle of the night. Thought it might be the plugs but switching them didn't help either. Can this be a safety hazzard? And what can I do to stop it?
