I am replacing dead bulbs with SMD Warm white LEDs rated at 3.2v 20mA
Managed to solder the diodes and leads together after many trial runs.
Tested good with 12vdc with 330ohm limiting resistor.
Now original bulbs ran on 12v ac. I understand it's not necessary to rectify to dc but there maybe flicker. should I use a 1N4007 diode in series as a half- wave rectifier before the resistor?
