You can't see it with the naked eye but that's not the point. The point is I want a device that it as less stressful to the eyes as possible and with PWM it doesn't matter if you can see the flickering.

That's what happens when you sit in front of a computer screen and read for hours, it also doesn't flicker 'visibly' but it's still there and messes with your eyes as you read long text.


This is how your eyes normally read letters on a continuously lit display. It's one smooth motion.


This is how your eyes read letters with PWM LEDs. In staccato, the opposite of smooth.


Which display seems less stressful to your eyes?
