Re: Green target has to "warm up"?

We have our light on a 120v to 12v conversion, using a landscape light adapter.

We noticed the warmup problem, and also noticed that a 12v direction was brighter. We attributed this to the landscape light transformer. Maybe its the lights themselves.

However, using the default setup have had no problems finding the green light and tracting movement, despite flourescent and incandesent lights trying to distract it.
