OK you guys, lots of excellent ideas! The DC idea's easiest, so it's
first. Big Clive's youtube link now appears as a Footnote on the
pertinent page:

    <https://crcomp.net/ledfilament/index.php>

The webpage also includes a couple of new images where 68 VDC is applied
to barely illuminate the filament's CoBs, first in one direction, and
then the opposite. How do you graph such empirical data?
    Anyhow, as expected, seven filament CoBs illuminate regardless of
DC polarity. Perhaps each of the seven CoBs contains a couple of LEDs,
cross connected to conduct current through the anode of one LED, while
the cathode of its coupled LED blocks current?
    JM, elsewhere you mention fourteen illuminated CoBs in Big Clive's
video. It seems significant that fourteen CoBs are also illuminated in
my filament (seven for each DC polarity).
    The filament also contains a small hole on one lead to denote its
anode. But it's pointless because the filament conducts in either
direction.
    Does one factory in China create CoB filaments for both AC and DC
applications? So users end up with filaments filled with fourteen CoBs
and an anode hole in one lead?
