Lightning using meanwell 60-48D drivers

So, I have just figured out lightning with the meanwell 60-48d drivers. The key to these drivers being able to do lightning, is only at night with all lights off. With all lights off I have a power supply on one plug running all the power to my drivers. Here is where the lighting works. Once you have the leds dimmed to 0/off then kill power the leds will flicker as they still have a little bit of power built up in the drivers. See video below and enjoy:

Hi,
If you are running an Apex and VDM with meanwell's, you can also buy a small pwm model driver and use the pwm output of vdw tied to a minimum number of led's that are only for lightning. You can also purchase this for more controllable lightening/storm's. http://reefbuilders.com/2011/02/01/profilux-led-control-4/
