Hello so my Kessil 160 is flickering I have taken it apart and cleaned everything that I could, I used a brush and can air, then I put it back together and now it is still flickering. Has anybody been successful with repairing this? Thanks In advance
 
I most cases it's caused by power problems. I would look at the light's power supply. it's usually a capacitor. I have no direct experience with that model but they are all basically built the same.

Capacitors are not easily tested with out proper meters but they are not expensive. I usually replace them all. Especially ones in high heat areas.
 
If the power supply does not fix it I would be interested in tearing it apart and trying to figure it out.
I work on electronics for a living and it would be fun.
