I've got one sat in the draw, the OEM modded one is better as it doesn't have the delayed 1st blink that I found irritating with the cheaper eBay/Amazon relays. I was surprised that wasn't a link to TapTurn. If I suspect that the relay is the issue then I'll yank it out and get that sorted before I fit the "LED" relay back in. If it wasn't raining hard I'd have tried it to prove it out my theory.

It's hard finding info on the LEDs, the eBay add just states 50W which isn't helpful. I've found info that the 2835 is likely to be ~0.2W per LED and there's 30 on the bulb so I assume that means it's 6W per bulb. If so that means I should really reduce down the resistor that I'm using in the relay to ~70mOhm from the 120mOhm that's currently in there.

I'll also add that when I put the 1st bulb in with my old LEDs in the other 3 corners it worked fine, it was only when I added a 2nd one in that I encountered these symptoms.
