I guess I'm missing something here ... why is everyone convinced this won't work ? LEDs are diodes, meaning they do have a relatively fixed forward voltage drop, below which no current flows; and th

Well, except that this is a half-sine wave, with a peak value closer to 170 volts. And, as I mentioned before, the dimmers I have don't have enough phase shift in the trigger circuit to trigger the
