Please remove the "very energy efficient" from the description, because this "bulb" is quite the opposite of it! It draws 5 Watts to light just 20 LEDs. 20 mA LEDs have 2 Lumens max (much less if you buy cheap ones). So this construction has an efficiency of 8 Lumens/Watt max. Even your good old incadescent can beat that!

(and I'm not even talking about safety issues here)

If you're making a lamp for 120 volts, what kind of resistor do you need?

[macobt]

@HoneycombAgent

for 20 leds in serial,and for 120 volts you will use about 4k ohms 5 watt resistor
