Hello we want to replace our incandescent
bulbs on our maverick machine.
We inserted Led bulbs but the Led,s are flickering and ghosing very hard. Now we have heard that we just can insert a resistor parralel on the led bulb. That would help to eliminate the ghosting. Is there anyone who have some expirience with this idea. Ore maybe there is another way to eliminate this problem. If we can fix this problem we would also replace the incandescent bulbs on a cftbl, and a poto

I actually just got one for my Maverick but haven’t installed it yet. I’ll post before and after videos on the LED OCD thread when I do, hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

Comet Non-Ghosting frosted bulbs n the inserts.

I just put a load of Comet standard 2SMD warm whites in my maverick with no complaints.
What kind of LEDs did you use?

I did use some normal led,s but i heard that even the non ghosting led,s would ghost and flicker. I have olso seen the led ocd board but that is a little bit to expensive to me and does not work for the GI lamps.

This is your main problem. I used Cointaker Premiums in my Maverick and the GI looks great, no flicker.
The controlled lamps do not ghost, but there is a slight flicker when held on. It doesn't bother me too much, but it could be resolved with LED OCD.

I put an led ocd board in my Maverick when I had the game and was happy with it. Here's a video of did when I installed it for reference.

thank you for that interesting video where did you exactly bought the ocd board?
