Can't answer that one, it's above my pay grade.
Easy answer perhaps would be to contact the Mfg. Easy source for the LED
direct replacement bulbs is now Home Depot. I assume there is one near you.
They perhaps have some trick electronics mounted internally to make the LED
bulbs work on AC current.
I dread trying to get correct technical info from any employee who is exposed to
consumer contact.
The very first ones (remember the blueish nightlights) consisted of one LED and
one resistor. I'm hoping the ones with multiple LEDs run half the diodes in each
direction, or they could power an LED or bank of LEDs from a full wave bridge.
If you've got one, and a multimeter with a diode check function, see if it
passes current in both directions.
