It's also supposed to make a piece spinning on a lathe appear to be stopped. As stated before, the frequency of the flickering in a florescent light tube supposedly acts as a strobe light. Never seen it myself though...  ???

mullet:
I have four sets in my shop and I can see my lathe spinning with no problem. And, if I can't focus on my bandsaw blade and I here it running I'm not putting my fingers close.

Yup. It has to be just the right number of teeth and just the right speed. I think the demo I saw they shut the saw off and as the blade was spinning down it appeared to stop and then as it got slower it started to move again.

PEARL DRUMS:
I swapped out my 4 foot flouros for 4 foot LEDs and the difference is astonishing. All the shadows and dark corners in my shop are gone. No cycling, no flickers, no slow start ups and no humming.
