Can anybody send me a new to buy led bulb, the link in the description is temporary out of stock?

Hey, thanks for pointing this out, I've just replaced the link, it should now work.

@@TasteTheCode Thank you for replying just one more question is you really sure that this fixture is with capacitive dropper because I am having a problem seeing it on webpage, and thanks one more this means really a lot to me.

Well that is difficult to tell as Chinese lamp are all different and even ordering from the same batch might come with different driver circuits.

Haha. I’ll use capacitive droppers to fix cc circuit led bulbs. if the leds are in series, then why won’t you simply short the broken led? Because you’ve already dropped the voltage by removing one capacitor. BTW they say use twice the power rated resistors in such cases. Exact power rated resistors always get burnt.

I don't know if you checked the schematic but there is no CC regulator on the board. The light depends on the LED clamping the voltage. On top of that, this is all just an experiment, things need to go bad and destroyed so we can better learn what is going on.

@@TasteTheCode your experiment gave me the confidence to fix 4 old led bulbs. I am also thinking if I buy high wattage bulb and reduce the power to the leds by using lower dropper capacitor then the bulb could last for a decade. 🤔

Also the parallel resistor to the leds could be for safety. Because when an LED fails, the voltage across the electrolytic capacitor would reach more than 220V.

@@GhostsOfSparta True that! There is a style of lights popularly named "Dubai Lamps" where they do exactly that straight out of the factory but they can only be purchased in Dubai.
