Led snubber

[mort2376]

Having read the forums about these, there appears to be several answers as to what and where.

Is there a definative answer as to what these are, where you put them and where to purchases them ??

I dont want to go into a store and be looked at like i am speaking in tounges ! :6:

Why do you want them?
Are you experiences flickering LED's when switched off or something?

Induced voltages and capacitance mainly on cables in parallel can have enough energy to charge up the striking circuits in Low energy loads like LED's, strappers are a likely cuplrit for this, all a snubber does is discharge any induced voltages etc.

Yeah a new build that is 2 way everywhere. Just started to put Led gu10's in and got phone call at midnight saying the lights are not turning off fully.

Found all this info but just want to be 100% certain what i need to buy and fit.

Are these snubbers any Thing more than a resistor?
