Claim Text:
1. A light emitting diode, LED package arranged to emit light when connected to an AC power supply, comprising: a first LED package terminal and a second LED package terminal, at least one pair of light emitting diodes connected in anti-parallel between said LED package terminals, so that an anode of a first light emitting diode is connected to a cathode of a second light emitting diode, wherein the first LED package terminal is detachably connectable to a first power supply terminal, and adapted to form a first capacitive coupling together with said first power supply terminal, wherein the second LED package terminal is detachably connectable to a second power supply terminal, and adapted to form a second capacitive coupling together with said second power supply terminal, such that, when the LED package terminals are connected to the power supply terminals, the at least one pair of light emitting diodes are directly connected to the AC power supply, and in a first period current will flow through the first light emitting diode, and in a second period current will flow through the second light emitting diode.
