You can cut the string and put in the amount of bulbs you want....You do not need to alter the power supply...the flicker he was talking about is that those light are running off 120Volts AC, now ac cycles 60 times a second so the LED's will go on and off 60 times a second!!!

Also if you want to buy some LED's to make your own moon Lighting the all you have to do is buy some LED's whatever color you want and get a power supply of any voltage ( has to be above 3 volts, LED's have a range or 3 volts to 220 volts) Through in a resistor or proper value.....if that is to bright or if you want like a dimmer to control it then just by a Variable resistor and throw that in line with the whole circuit....then you can control the intensity of the lights!!!
