Not a photosensor. Just a plain old fixture.

Can you describe the "pulse" please? How frequently does it occur, how
long do the "dim" periods last, etc.
Have you tried a regular incandescent bulb in that fixture recently? If
so, does it light OK?

As others have indicated, any kind of dimmer, photocell or other than a
standard switch in the circuit could cause the flickering problem. CFLs may
also flicker when cold. However, that flicker will quickly disappear as the
lamp warms up especially if the lamp is in an enclosed fixture.

It is in a bottom open fixture and the incandescent lights up fine.

Correction! The incandescent does not light either. Time for a new
fixture!
