In this post we present 3 circuit ideas for creating beautiful Christmas tree light decorations. The first idea explains a transistorized flashing blinking LED string light which can be mounted on a Christmas tree. The second circuit diagram describes an LED light effect generator which can be also installed over a real Christmas tree for […]

IC 555 LED Circuits (Blinking, Flashing, Fading Effect)
In this post I have explained how to assemble IC 555 for generating interesting LED circuits with blinking, flashing and fading light effects with some minor modification and enhancements. Why use an IC 555 Astable The astable multivibrator mode is the most fundamental mode of operation of the IC 555. In this mode it basically […]
220V Operated LED Flasher Circuit using Triac
The following triac/diac based mains operated LED flasher circuit which is actually an astable multivibrator circuit utilizes only a diac and resistor arrangement for implementing interesting wig wag flashing of two LEDs. The simple 220V flasher circuit was shared with me by Mr.Vineesh, who is one of the keen followers of this blog. I would […]
How to Make a LED Flashlight Circuit
White LEDs have become so common nowadays that even school kids today know how to use them for making simple LED projects. LEDs are typically used for illuminating purposes, the discussed circuit is also intended for similar applications. The post talks about how to wire LEDs and battery to make a simple DIY LED flashlight. […]
Diwali, Christmas 220V Lamp Chaser Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple, compact, 220V, 120V transformerless light chaser circuit which can be used for illuminating 220 V mains operated lamps or bulbs in a sequential chasing manner. Main Technical Features The chasing or running lamp effect can be altered by means of pot controls. The system can be used […]
Light Dependent LED Intensity Controller Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple ambient light dependent LED illumination controller circuit. The light fades or intensifies proportionately i response to the ambient light conditions. With brighter daylights, the LEd illumination gets softer and vice versa. The idea was requested by one of the dedicated members of this blog. Technical Specifications While […]
