hi tv,
Is this better for you..

God Bless you Eric. Thank you for helping here
Yip, X2 all the way. Now I can continue with what I can possibly give to help educate people about how robust these little guys actually are.
Here is what Jimson puts them through: Attachment below:
Okay...finally found the file and uploaded it. Jimson is Chinese. Jimson can do the job. A Jimson X2 cap rated @ 275VAC can actually do all and more than it it is rated for......I know. I have taken these guys through their paces.
Three runs @ 400VAC for Five Minutes per run with my little light. No sweat.....
I use X2 caps as Mains Droppers within a Sealed environment. To power and charge both LED's and the backup battery
No nasty surprises as with SMPS that I deal with daily. I tried my best to blow this little guy up in the interests of testing....no go. I went from thirty seconds up to one one minute. First test.
Then I went from one minute up to two minutes....all at 400VAC. It is rated at only 220VAC input.
Then, one memorable Sunday morning, after being warned by my friend......"Don't do something stupid now..leave the 3 phase alone..", I went for it anyway...
Two runs of five Minutes each at 400VAC. Within 10 Minutes of each other
That is real bad ass testing of a product.
Well, the same one that has been to hell and back is still sitting here and proving light, charging the battery and all. Nothing has changed.
Good linear rules. From a tvtech who is tired of fixing blown SMPS in TV's.
I know it is a long post. Thanks guys for reading.
