Patent ID: 8531118

Claim:
A lighting system comprising: at least one LED circuit having at least one LED, the at least one LED circuit being capable of emitting light during both a positive phase and a negative phase of an AC power supply; a driver connected to the least one LED circuit, the driver providing AC voltage and current to the at least one LED circuit, the driver having an input of a first AC voltage and a first frequency and an output of a second AC voltage and a second frequency, which the second AC voltage is a relatively fixed voltage and the second frequency is a relatively higher frequency wherein the driver and the at least one LED circuit form a driven circuit and the driver and the at least one circuit being configured such that one or more additional LED circuits can be added to or subtracted from the driven circuit so long as the total wattage output of the driver is not exceeded: (a) without significantly affecting a pre-determined desired output range of light from any individual LED; (b) without the need to: (i) change a value of any discrete component; or, (ii) to add or subtract any discrete components, of any of the pre-existing driven circuit components which remain after the change.
