How can I make a neon bulb flash at 240 volts?

(I would love to use an LED if he knew how to drop the voltage 2-3 V without transformer) I is a CR circuit. I know that 1 / c * r = sec I can get one to work practically has anyone has a good track, which works for 240 V - AC

The traditional neon circuit consists of a neon lamp in parallel with a capacitor. The parallel combination feeds DC power source through an appropriate series resistance. It is based on the properties of a neon lamp. The capacitor is charged up gradually through resistance until the capacitor voltage rises above the striking voltage of the neon lamp. The neon lamp, then the lights go low resistance, and discharges the capacitor. The neon is switched off, the capacitor starts to charge again and repeat the process. The point is that you need a power supply DC to run it. A network peak nominal voltage diode in series with the load resistance should be enough if you need to use AC
