I hate flickering PWM lights.
Yes, I know that the visible flicker here is an artifact of camera frame rate, but it just reminds me that poorly implemented PWM dimming is visible, and I hate it. I'm sure I could calculate the frequency here if I knew the frame rate, but I just hope that Slate does this right.

My first DIY just might be lights, and I hope that the base implementation allows it.
I want amber turn indicators on the taillights.
I want DIMMER headlights so I don't blind the poor shmuck in front of me.
Same thing with automatic high beams. Disable that completely.

I thought I was the only one who noticed PWMs. A lot of the older ones flickered real bad coz the frequency was too low. Kinda like watching CRT televisions in Asia at 50 Hertz.

The newer LEDs are a lot better with flicker, so I think Slate will be okay there. Although nothing beats a resistor for simplicity or reliability - if not efficiency.
