You're right about the D.

Already tried driving them with AC, NO GO.

LEDs illuminate at 4.3 volts DC. 10 LEDs in series light at 43 volts, not 41.5.


Spent a couple hours on the phone with Grote who made them. Given the answers I got from the brilliant people working at Grote, I wonder how the hell that company stays in business.
I am firmly convinced Grote Tech Assistance people have to leave their cube with a laptop or similar device to get to the crapper when they need to go. If they ain't smart enough to ask the Big Gputer the correct question they have no problem telling me the grote product made by then, with their logo stamped in the housing does not exist, they never made it, and I am halucinating.

It'll be a cold day in hell when I buy the next Grote product.

On a similar note I'm becoming convinced any manufacturer dealing with Johnson Control quickly comes to wish they hadn't, and deletes any information on the Johnson job. I know there is a Town over next to Buffalo that wishes they never heard of Johnson.
