Led powering circuit

A circuit for providing power to a load comprising:

• a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor comprising a first terminal positioned in electrical communication with a live wire of an alternating current (AC) power source;
• a plurality of diodes comprising
• a first diode positioned such that a cathode thereof is electrically connected to a second terminal of the PTC thermistor and an anode thereof is electrically connected to a first node of the load,
• a second diode positioned such that an anode thereof is electrically connected to the second terminal of the PTC thermistor and a cathode thereof is electrically connected to a second node of the load,
• a third diode positioned such that an anode thereof is electrically connected to the anode of the first diode and the first node of the load and a cathode thereof is electrically connected to a neutral line of the AC power source, and
• a fourth diode positioned such that an anode thereof is electrically connected to the neutral line of the AC power source and a cathode thereof is electrically connected to the cathode of the second diode and the first node of the load;
• and
• a fuse positioned intermediate the PTC thermistor and the live wire of the AC power source;
• wherein each diode of the plurality of diodes has a reverse voltage rating within the from one of 110 volts to 120 volts and 220 volts to 240 volts;
• and
• wherein each diode of the plurality of diodes has a current rating within the range from 0.5 amperes to 1 ampere.
