Now if the same could be done for bad LED lighting. I hate being somewhere where the whole room is strobing at 100 hz.



Yeup. Interesting how the older LED bulbs are particularly bad for this (and in the UK, at 50Hz). More modern high quality ones seem significantly better.


GP's comment said 100Hz because that's what you get from full-wave rectification of 50Hz mains, so they were talking about that. It'd be 120Hz in countries that use 60Hz mains (e.g. in North America).
