TV on for noise, I have tinnitus.

Saw that too, thought the same thing. I bet if anything, there is one large capacitor and a couple resistors to drive the LEDs.

Uh, Wes, _commercial_television_ is an insult to anyone with a functioning brain. Just Say No!

Mildly related, I have a radio with some conservative radio show on
24x7 in my shed. This seems to keep pests away from the shed. It works. The only thing that surprises me is the choice of commercials on that show. i
I'm afraid in the last decade or so non-commercial television such as PBS isn't far behind. I haven't turned on a TV in my house since this past June testing my converter boxes after the ATSC cutover. I haven't missed it either. I also don't listen to any radio other than NPR anymore.
It's all crap, the advertiser supported business model no longer works and the broadcasters have not managed to find a viable new operating model, so they are dying a slow or not so slow death desperately accepting every scam advertiser that comes their way since that is all the advertising business they can get. This also violates their operating license, specifically the "operate in the public interest" clause since airing obvious scam advertising is clearly not in the public interest.
After reading the comments I just had to take a look. What a crock of crap. Filtered electrical signals from the lighter, indeed.
