LED Strip Flickering? Possible Reason and Solution! 

Mine won’t stop flickering but they aren’t powered on by the remote they are just plugged in they turn of when I turn the plug of but I don’t know why

My LED lights are new and they flicker. They have a place to plug in the home power outlet. Whyyy is this

My under cabinet system (designed and set up per supplier) has worked fine for 1-1/2 years and is now flashing. Wired parallel to three cabinets. Small kitchen.. The transformer is in my 89 degree basement. Could that be too warm for it?

Thanks bro! you solved a major problem for me. You made me realise the voltage drop in my 2 AMP wires - which were 2.5 metres long. So I switched to 7AMP wires and it worked!! Thanks!!

Great info on the led strips, I'm having problem with mine and your video helped me sort my flickering out spot on

Super very helpful. Thanks a lot man

Hi, i just have 1 white channel LEDs. When I use the DMX decoder in standalone there is no flicker, i can switch on and off perfectly. When i switch to DMX control they flicker every 3 seconds. I can dim and play with which channel etc. all fine but the flicker. Any ideas? Question as well. I only connect via the decoder, 12v comes out and the LED is connected direct via 30cm of cable. You have RGB which I assume is why you have power in one end and DMX on the other. is this labelled on the LED strip?

I've been looking for a solution for a flicker free LED when filmed in slow motion (60fps 1/125 shutter) do you happen to know if these flicker in slow mo?

Saved my day!!

How to we make them start flickering for amber color? It would look like flame then.

I’ve done 2 led bars straight to the battery with a inline fuse with a 3 pin switch under my car bonnet but now starts to flash how can I stop it ??? Relay? Or resistor?? Also plan on adding more bulbs to make the under side of the bonnet look like stars at night what would be best to add them with a switch

Hey brother thanks for the vid... I have practically the same led strips , I have them connected to a 3 prong power switch , have been using them for about a year, have left them on over night and various hours at times. With no issues.... recently they just shut off. All power cuts off, even the light on my 3 prong switch goes out so obviously the switch is cutting off, but I don’t know why, if I wait a couple minutes the light switches on automatically on my switch and I can’t turn my leds back on but after a minute or seconds they power off. The leds turn on and off soo I don’t think the issue is there... PLEASE HELP!! p.s. I I’m to sure but I believe one if leds + & - we’re exposed and I think they touched metal witch could have caused this but can’t see. To fix it. I’ve tried a new switch of the same but same results. Thank you

My led Flash intermittently when connected to my TV but works fine when connected to a mains. I think it’s because they are overloading? is there anything I can connect to the USB so I can have them on my tv, a reducer if there is such a thing?

Hi! I need help with my LED lights and I can’t seem to find any videos about it. I recently got my lights like brand new 5 minute ago opened and I put it up. My dad like nailed some parts but between the lights where you’re supposed to cut on both of the lights. One of them is working but the other side works with some colors but on like green or white it starts dimming and is very dim or not even the color I selected. Help?

I keep unplugging and turning off and then plug back in and they just start flickering the color green for whatever reason and it won’t stop

My led lights are smart ones and so i dont have a remote to turn it off but there is a button thing on the side of the strip but even when i click or hold on it it doesnt turn off

my led strip flickers sometimes when plugged into a Samsung 5v 2.0AMP power socket, plz help FYI I have my LED strip along the topside of my 17” computer

do you have the code for the test?

If you have any idea, tell me.... how can I get the exact "real-time 3D coordinate" of any object in space & by which sensor or camera? By Vicon or OptiTrack, can I get the "Real 3D coordinates of an object" in its range? help me, someone, ASAP..

we just had an led strip installed in our kitchen and it flickers when i turn it off after leaving it on for a few hours? any help or suggestions to make them fix it easier

Yesterday connecting e strips light and spot light but flikering some moment why??

Lead strips? Lol... Thats a new one

Well put. A common problem demonstrated and fixed. Thanks!

A contractor installed two sets of LED lights under our cabinets. Have two sets of an AC/DC adapter Model: LJH-1206 which plugs into an outlet, then it plugs into an RF Receiver which is then attached to flexible LED tape of lights. I cannot see how it is connected as it is covered with a large blob of silicone. Each set has a remote, but both sets are controlled at the same time. If you turn off/on both sets activate identically. They are opposite sides of the kitchen. Within a few days of installation we noted that occasionally they will flash about 3 times in unison. If you are not in the room and see the flash it is like lightning. Contractor said call the supplier. Supplier says talk to contractor. A week and a half later the controller no longer works. Replaced the batteries in the remotes, nothing. We got the supplier to replace the remotes and the RF Receivers. The remotes work, but they still occasionally flash 3 times, always in unison. What do I do??? THANK YOU!

every time I turn on the power supply (external) to feed 70 leds on one strip, I noticed that the leds flashed once. I'm not quite sure if that's normal. I then run the arduino to control the leds.

I cut my led lights and I put them back together with the adapter that came with them but the bit that I cut off won’t turn on. Any ideas why this might happen or how to fix it?

Thankyou so much I just increased the power(5v to 9v)and voila 😍😍

Is this flickering visible to the naked eye, or are you specifically addressing the flickering that’s seen in video?

Hello new to this , just wanted to know, you have connected data pin and gnd in from of the led strip and giving power supply to leds from behind?

My homemade Nanoleaf started going from the color i put it in or mode to black then a few seconds later came back

Mine are really dim to the point where u can only see it when you go really close to it and they flicker what can I do to fix it

Using the WS2812 series was a bad idea for this video. The worst flicker for these is the low PWM causing issues with video and in general when moving eyes across a scene. I'd recommend you split this video to add more details: A. Power supply ripple caused flicker and the solutions. B. PWM caused flicker and the non-solvability. I know your video is named "Possible Reason and Solution!" but missing these obvious points isn't great.

This might be the cause of my flickering. Thanks.

Nice T-shirt

Oh god, are you supposed to have the power and controller going into opposite ends of the strip? Thats what this looks like. My setup is (starting at outlet): 5v power supply cord --> controller --> dupont connectors --> factory led adapter --> led soldering points, all on one end. And I get flicker when it transitions between colors. 9ft of 144pixel leds

i need help

I still don't know how to fix the LED strips under my kitchen cabinet that started flickering then eventually quit working all together. This video didn't help at all :(

I hate watching video with a body talking and no head it’s so disturbing!!
