    I’m curious about the options coming down the pike for people that don’t like flicker. I heard some of you say that you run your LEDs off of DC power somehow. How do you plug in the string of LED lights to DC power?

      Short generalized answer: it depends on the strip / strand… But if the strand has a brick at the end that is converting ac - > dc with 2 wires you can typically replace that with a better driver easily. It gets far more specific when a data line is introduced. It won’t fix cheap LEDs outright but it can change how they behave.
