I'm sitting at my desk and next to me is a Touch Lamp. You know the kind you touch to turn it on/off and dims it?
Anyways,
Everytime I get a text message (which is ALOT) it must interfere with whatever is in the lamp and makes the light brighter.
It goes,
On
Bright
Brighter
Brightest
Off
Kinda freaked me out for a second

That is really weird! I always know when I'm getting a text message because right before it comes in, my computer monitor starts to flash!

My mom has one of those in her bedroom that goes on by itself all the time. She's come home from work when nobody's been in the house all day and it's been on.

Mr. Pajamas figured mine out fast.....I'd wake up to bright, brighter, brightest, off....bright, brighter.... you get the point. He really liked it at 1AM.


Text messages don't set mine off though, maybe yours is possessed?

I wouldn't doubt it!
The brats used to turn it off/on when they were kittens

LOL! You may want to get a new battery or at some point get a new phone.

Often times those lamps will turn on by themselves whenever there is a power surge or spike in the circuit. If your phone is emitting that much power out of it, I'd been a little concern about brain tumors

Well, it only does it when it's plugged in charging
