The proposed electronic candle circuit does not use wax, paraffin or flame, yet the device perfectly simulates a conventional candle. Basically it incorporates ordinary electronic parts like LED and battery. The interesting part of it is that it can be extinguished with literally a puff of air. The proposed electronic LED candle circuit helps you […]

How to Illuminate 100 LEDs from 6 Volt Battery
In this article I have explained an innovative way of driving more than a hundred white LEDs from a 6 volt battery. The circuit utilizes the IC 555 for driving a step up transformer, whose output is finally used for illuminating the LEDs. A special PWM configuration makes the circuit much power efficient. Main Stages […]
230 Volts Bulb String Light Circuit for Diwali and Christmas
In this article I have explained how to wire tiny 12 volt flashlight bulbs into decorative string light for decorating houses during festivals like Diwali and Christmas. What are String Lights As the name suggests a string light is a wired lamp system in which many lamps such as bulbs or LEDs are joined together […]
Sequential LED Array Light Circuit
In this article I have explained how to make a sequential LED array light circuit with an sequentially illuminating LED forming a bar graph kind of LED formation. Introduction In this article I have explained a simple method of making an incremental LED light using the IC 4017, which is rather equipped with specifications not […]
Transformerless Automatic Night Lamp Circuit
This transformerless solid-state automatic night lamp operates without using bulky transformer, and automatically switches ON some LEDs during night, and switches them OFF during day. In this post I have explained how to make a transformerless automatic darkness activated LED lamp circuit, using a couple of transistors and capacitive based power supply, eliminating the use […]
Using a Fan Dimmer for Controlling LED Intensity
The circuit idea I have I have explained in this article can be used for controlling the intensity of many LEDs through a ceiling fan dimmer switch unit. This circuit was requested by Mr. Joseph who wanted a simple method through which an ordinary home dimmer switch could be integrated with a chain of LEDs for controlling its brightness from […]
