problem: LED was flickering at first. then 3 (out of 6 per piece) leds were out until all are dead.

installed another one thinking it could be the LED but problem is occuring again. replaced the previous halogen bulb and it does not flicker.
2 300 ohm resistors in parallel is equal to 150 ohms.
Mostly sir, the problem why it flickers is there is too much current passing thru the LED. Sa sobrang taas ng current, nasusunog na yung nasa loob.
