I have dissected a couple LED bulbs.
They have a buck switching power supply in the base to convert 120 V or 230V to DC.
The ones I checked are 5V.dc
You can get a buck switching power supply with an adjustable voltage and current output, adjust voltage and current. Commercial light bulbs buck power supplies are preset to volts and amps when they are designed.
I have a LED kitchen light that has 2 banks of ~ 100 smaller LEDs around the edge. The buck power supply inside was set higher, it was failed so I dont have the DC voltage output available to share.
For another example I took 115 VAC LED floodlights that had a failed motion detector, and removed the LED floodlights.
I installed them on a robot that used a 12V battery. The LEDs turned on at about 1.6 V and varied brightness based on the current limit adjust.
The LEDs were rated for 2A, I adjusted the buck supply output voltage to .25V above turn on voltage, and current limit to 1 A because the lights got hot to touch at higher current levels.
