Backround:
- Dimming the Magc shine cause a strobing effect especially while skiing in snow.
- Filming with a Gopro or phone camera cause interference in the video/pictures.
Here are some pictures talken from a Google Pixel XL phone.

|
100% (no dimming) |
 |
Dimming 1 |
 |
Dimming 2 |
So during the exposure it seems the light is stopping compleetly 3-4 times.
Opening up

|
That yellow there is the filter capacitor about 470uF if i recall. |
 |
Adding 3000uF in parallel with the original. |
Result:
 |
100% ( no change, there is no noise to begin with) |
 |
Dim 1 |
 |
Dim2 |
 |
Dim3 |
Some stripes can be seen on the dimming but it is not by far as annoying as the original.
I guess this will address the most of the flicker and interference i see when using in combination with Gopro.
Isolated the capacitors and managed to cram them into the case. But it was a tight squeeze.
