    Quoted from Kevlar:

    I am the unlucky owner of a RBION which is a whitestar and therefore ghosts badly with LEDs. Tried a few LEDs in it including " non ghosting premium 2' " .....yeah right! . All types ghost. Will the resistor trick sort it for me? Most of the lamps are 555's in plastic sockets so will be awkward but probably doable.

    I put pinballbulbs LEDs in my RBION and they don't ghost. Used the non-ghosting of course. They still do the whitestar fast flicker thing though. LEDs are just too responsive it seems to avoid that, but they don't light when not supposed to.

    Quoted from action76:

    I have a STTNG and the shield inserts in front of the Enterprise are fine in attract mode when they are on full power, but during gameplay (I think they are dimmed to show shield strength) they look like strobe lights. Is there any trick to fix the flicker on those?

    On williams games turn off setting A25
