Short answer, cut an extension cord in the middle and solder in a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER.
This gives you DC power. Now your lights will not flicker. They are also like 50% brighter.
But wait! The catch is that a lot of the strings are reversed in the middle so only half of it works on dc. You then have to cut the lights in the middle, swap the wires, and reconnect them.
I actually ran my outside lights on rectified DC power last year because the flicker kills me
Say more about this. I also don’t like flicker

Its a lot of farting around but looks nice.
