Eveready Lighting: troubleshooting and FAQs

Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Eveready Lighting.

Troubleshooting tips

  • If your Eveready LED bulb flickers, first check if the bulb is properly screwed into the socket. Loose connections can cause intermittent power supply, leading to flickering. Tighten the bulb and try again.
  • For Eveready emergency lights or inverters that fail to charge, inspect the power cord and adapter for any damage. Also, ensure the outlet is working by testing with another device. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement.
  • If an Eveready LED tube light does not turn on, check the starter and ballast (if applicable). For LED tubes with built-in drivers, ensure the voltage in your area is stable. Overvoltage can damage the driver, causing the light to fail.
  • When Eveready bulbs or tube lights produce a humming sound, it might be due to incompatible dimmer switches. Eveready recommends using only compatible dimmers. Replace the dimmer with a leading-edge or trailing-edge dimmer as per the product specification.
  • If your Eveready rechargeable torch or lantern is not holding charge, clean the charging contacts with a dry cloth. Dirty contacts can prevent proper charging. Also, avoid overcharging as it can reduce battery life.

  • Start with the official customer care channels and escalate only if the issue remains unresolved.
  • Clearly state your desired resolution (replacement, refund, repair) when filing a complaint.
  • Use written communication (email) whenever possible to maintain a paper trail.
  • If you escalate to a consumer forum, file within the limitation period of two years from the date of the cause of action.
  • Consider using the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) portal mentioned on Eveready's website for quicker resolution.
