We all know the flickering flame candle bulb (if you don't, what are you doing here?) I was wondering if there's a way to get this to glow stable. So I removed the base and found a 30K 1/4W resistor in there (230V model) I replaced this with a 10K 1W model to see what would happen. Well, things happened... It was glowing way more intense but still flickering and after 5 minutes or so I noticed the rich bouquet of brûlante resistance (the resistor was melting and you know the smell...) So I contacted a certain YouTuber for advice and he told me perhaps it would be possible but I need to use a combination of a resistor and a capacitor (with discharge resistor across it) to get higher current with less heat a combination. All good advise (I guess) but I have no idea about capacitor values etcetera. Can anyone help me in the direction to solve this? Thanks in advance
