Yes, it should be a short blip. It's just closing the circuit for a brief moment to allow the discharge of power from a capacitor into the bulb. Hard to detect

Yes, it should be a short blip. It's just closing the circuit for a brief moment to allow the discharge of power from a capacitor into the bulb. Hard to detect by a meter, but should be easy to pick up by an Arduino or something like that, maybe even a simple circuit.
