I believe he wants to strobe them faster than the eye can percieve.
something like 50 hz would do it.


Ah, now I understand. But this has no benefits. A LED that is continuously
on at, say 20mA, will appear to have the same brightness as when strobed
with a 20% duty-cycle (1/5 of the time) at 100mA (5 times the current).
