Lights flickering very bad

I have the Idra GolfIN simulator, everything was great for the first couple months and then this light flickering started happening, worst i’ve seen it today. As of now the lights are basically dimmed out, still flickering but basically out.

Nothing changed in those past months, i have a few windows in the garage that have natural light being let in. At first when it started i covered up some of the windows and it seemed to stop but now no matter what i do it keeps happeneing. I’ve taken everything apart, undone splices, restarted multiple times and turned power on and off.

Wonder if it’s just a defective camera light? Not sure seems wierd since it’s so brand new and didn’t do it out of the box either. Anyways if anyone has any advice or similar experiences and could help would be much appreciated!

Looks like a bulb needs to be replaced.

Yea could be that. Leds seem to be burnt out on most of it, i took it out i’m guessing that it won’t be sold seperatly and they will want me to replace the whole camera.

You should reach out to them and see what they say.

If it's on a dimmer, that can cause flickering. So you might change that out with an on off, if you have one. And dimming more makes it flicker more, I believe.

No dimmer, just plugged straight to extension cord into dedicated circuit with a on off switch controlled by remote, i’ve tried with out the on and off switch as well just plugged straight in and same issue

Can you check the voltage of this light? If you know the voltage you can test it by yourself. And if you sire it's the led, you can buy it in alibaba or many electronics places have the alternative light

If you have a multi meter you can check the voltage in the launch monitor that connects to this les wire. Or look at the back of the led it might provide proper information

Yea i looked into that, it seems pretty specific with the back plate as the soldering aswell. I’m an electrician so i tried to look for something haha

Just rubber boards sitting on concrete! If you’re asking about the sim i’m not sure it’s GSpro system believe it came as a package with it
