Can reversing ac polarity of half of the bulbs in a chandelier bring the flickering out of sync (out of phase) so that half of the bulbs are ON while the others are OFF?
I mean the AC polarity of the socket and not the DC terminals of the internal driver circuit
I did some experimentation with a 5 w bulb, a testin socket and the phone's camera after removing the defusing cap and zoom to the LEDs but the result was not what I expected : the light was not exactly blinking but moving in a line from side to side and when the socket was flipped instead of reversing direction or just stay the same the light just flicker without the first pattern.
Another LED bulbs were not flickering at all but they are too bright and uncomfortable fir indoor.
To be honest the flickering is not detectable unless you put some effort to detect it by playing with the camera's anti banding and frame rate settings but I'm afraid it could one day ruin an important video.
Can reversing AC polarity of one of two adjacent LED bulbs reduce overall flickering in a room?
