I have the same sort of issue with my EBD-LE. I have new Alltek Lamp Driver and Aux Lamp Driver boards, and still get noticeable flicker.

I have a new SDB board coming that I hope will help (I've also replaced the Main Power board as well). The flickering is just bad enough to be annoying.

And yes, it does seem to be worse on certain specific bulbs...

Quoted from fb_rider:

Any additional thoughts on this? I got David from Altech on the phone - we walked through a bunch of tests with no luck. He's thinking that the ac and dc might be crossed somewhere but can't seem to find anything that could be causing that. I've unplugged the playfield to isolate it but still no success. I'm usually pretty good at diagnostice but this one has me really puzzled.

If the AC and DC were "crossed somewhere" wouldn't that cause massive other issues also?

I'll be installing my new SDB board after Xmas, and will let you know if that improved anything on my (seemingly identical) issue.
