    Quoted from Pahuffman:

    I actually like the look of LEDs in an EM, but the damn flickering bothers me so badly that I just can't do it. Does anyone know how to prevent the flickering? I'm not talking about ghosting. I'm talking about the refreshing of the bulb - when the ball passes by it looks like there are 12 balls right behind one another.

    I haven't experienced that with them used only under inserts. Perhaps the lense dissipates the effect? I have seen it on modern games that have them in the GI on top. I never use them there, or behind the back glass-just under inserts and then only warm white/non-ghosting/retro style bulbs.

    Quoted from ryan1234:

    I'm not sure how that could ever happen.

    Stray voltage all the time in the feature circuits........
