My lights started blinking a few weeks ago. Both the blues and the clear. I purchased a new power supply and it's still doing it. It must be the light. And advise?
 
check the connections. look for salt creep in on the fixture. try some contact cleaner for electronics and let it air out before putting it back on.
 
Are they hooked up to a dimmer? The dimmer could be bad. How about VDM port on apex I have seen those ports go bad.
 
Try another VDM port. Also what kind of LEDs are we talking about? Have you checked the connections to make sure they are not loose at all? Get a volt meter and check to see if it's fluctuating.
 
I think the above suggestions make the most sense. Unplug it from the Apex and see if it still happens. My other thought is that they are overheating and the drivers are shutting down.
 
I had a friend that mistakenly had turned on the weather setting on his unit. You might double check that if yours has one.
 
I plugged it in another outlet. Not an apex outlet. It's still blinks. I'm taking it to me supplier tomorrow.
