Keep this in mind prior to purchase. Ensure that the store where you purchase takes returns.

The cheaper china manufactured leds are very bad with causing radio interference. Some interference can be lessened with rf chokes, but hard to completely knock it out.

Best to get the best you can afford and take it from there.
