Never buy a touch-to-turn-on lamp...

[ankh]

...if you live near a railway line. The bloody thing keeps switching itself on and off. Stupidly, there isn't a switch option to keep it turned on.

Wow, that's either a very sensitve lamp, or a faulty one. My house has been known to vibrate due to quarry blasting and very heavy goods trains carrying the rocky results of the blasting, but my touch lamp isn't affected and I thought touch lights required just that - touch, and usually the touch of skin, rather than an inanimate object or a hand encased in a glove (can you tell I've been experimenting... *g*)

I wonder if there's a loose wire in yours that the vibration is causing to short.
