You are right , after all LED = Light Emitting Diode, a diode, main component of rectifier, any led on AC will work as an half wave rectifier
A solar powered LED bulb cooled by water, that's what I call green!
edit: just remembered water cooling systems used some inductive oil , still sound cools

interesting thread, think im going to have to look into all this again. did alot of research a few years ago when was thinking about putting in a water turbine, but at time just wasnt cost effective for the amount of electricity generated. i guess now designs have improved and hopefully prices have come down abit. maybe more worthwhile now.
When I have more time I'll take a look at this: http://www.gotwind.org/diy/Preliminary_Plans.htm
