In my case my HDTV would totally blank OFF and when I turned off the LED LIGHTS it jumps back to crystal clear performance.
The LED BOARDS meet FCC REGULATIONS on submission of Radio Frequency Interference. Lots of info available on this forum about this...
I originally purchased a whole bunch of the LED BOARD that had the regulator BUCK BOOST chips on the board that makes the LED operate within the 9-20VDC voltage range. I had to throw those out and just use non-regulated LED BOARDS in my two trailer.
Just passing on what happened to my LED INSTALL... Might work just fine for you... I definitely would only BUY ONE to try out first before dumping a couple of hundred of dollars into the change out project.
I got my my LED BOARDS from EBAY CHINA for 10 boards for around $50.
Installed in 2010 an still working just fine in both trailers.
