Hmm, interesting.
My house lights are 12VDC on a standalone battery system charged by micro hydro & solar.
I have had a lot of problems with LED's flickering also, they work fine for years or sometimes only months, then they turn into strobe lights, first it's intermittent & turning off then on again fixes the flicker, then it becomes permanent & we have a disco strobe going. Wife loves it, not.
I also think it's due to marginal voltage fluctuations during charge & draining cycles that kills them.
So I'm very interested in any solutions.
The best life I've had out of 12V lights is from 12V fluoro lights. But some of them die early too.
I still toy with the idea of just dumping the 12v lights & going 240v, as I have plenty of power. (Oceanboy, feel like a working holiday?)
