Make this Red LED Sign Circuit

Last Updated on June 1, 2026 by Swagatam Leave a Comment

The post presents a simple transformerless red LED sign circuit which can be made even by a novice. The circuit uses only a few high voltage capacitors, two resistors, and a few red LEDs…. nothing more. The circuit idea and the images were submitted by Mr. John Hungerford. The following email was sent to me […]

How to Make Car LED Bulb Circuit

Last Updated on June 1, 2026 by Swagatam 8 Comments

car led bulb circuit

Typically all car turn signal lamps are around 12 to 20 watt rated which are traditionally incandescent bulb types and produce much lower light intensities compared to LED lights. Here I have explained how these lamps can be replaced with high efficiency, high intensity car LED bulbs. LED Car Bulb Design The image below shows […]

How to Connect Car LED Downlight: Circuit Diagram

Last Updated on June 2, 2026 by Swagatam Leave a Comment

A car LED downlight available in the market can be easily integrated to an existing car battery if its rating is identical to the battery’s voltage rating. I have explained more regarding one such request sent by Mr. Allwyn Siqueira. How to Connect Downlight to 12V Car Battery Hi Swagatam, I’ve just spent the last […]

Light Dependent LED Intensity Controller Circuit

Last Updated on June 1, 2026 by Swagatam 27 Comments

ambient light dependent fading led lights

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 […]

Making a 10/12 watt LED Lamp with 12 V Adapter

Last Updated on June 1, 2026 by Swagatam 24 Comments

2013 1223 1158 30 2

In this post I have explained the construction of a homemade 10 watt LED lamp using ready made 12 V SMPS adapter. The project was successfully built by Mr. Debabrata Mandal. In many of previous posts I have discussed the use of 1 watt white LEDs for making high efficiency LED lamps for implementing in […]
