I posted an illegal thread, which was made clear to me. I did read the guidelines about direct driving LEDs from mains, but in my ignorance thought that meant applying AC line power directly to a "dc" LED.
My circuit contains a circuit breaker, and fuse to prevent over current by potential component failure.
- so on to my point.
My thread was closed, but I don't think closing the thread serves anyones interest. I believe it should have been pointed out that the thread was indeed in violation as well as a suggestion, such as an isolation transformer, GFI, etc. If no alternative solution is available then at least post the dangers or reasoning why this circuit is not allowed. By closing the thread you will not prevent that person from continuing their curiosity and being potentially harmed through ignorance.

you don't have to know everything, if you know where to find it.
*When you do ask questions, you may look stupid.
*When you do NOT ask questions, you will STAY stupid. <- I asked and am still stupid
can we please reopen the thread if only for one administrative post in regards to safety please.
I apologize for violating the rules, I truly did not perceive a problem.
