Lantern Flasher/Dimmer #3: The electronic lantern control circuit adds
high-efficiency dimming and flashing to an existing battery-powered lantern or
flashlight or to a custom design. For the car it makes a great lamp for changing
a flat tire, back seat reading or emergency engine work. The flasher mode is
useful for warning other drivers of your troubles and it may be adjusted to have a
very short flash duration for long-term use as when the car must be left on the
shoulder over night. When camping it is great as a low-power night light for the
tent or the portable 'potty'--you may select only as much
light as you need! The flasher mode is useful for finding a boat dock in the
dark or even attracting fish. At home,... (added 2/06) |

LED Flasher and TRAC Pulser Work off AC Line: 01/15/98 EDN-Design Ideas /
(added 08/05) A flashing LED is an excellent visual alarm. Unfortunately, the LED is a
dc device and requires additional circuitry to operate from an ac source. Several
circuits can perform the necessary function, but the circuit in Figure 1a is the most
efficient. This circuit is also reliable, compact, and inexpensive. |

LEDs Flasher Alternately: Classic astable multivibrator using2 transistors.
Transistor is not critical. Try these:2N4401,2N2222, NTE123A, NTE123AP, NTE159, TUP/TUN
and those in your junk box, you may find that most of them will work. (added 4/02) |

Light Dimmer Circuit with 0 to 10 Volt Input: This is a simple dimmer
circuit that can be controlled with0 -10 VDC. It is designed for110-Volt AC. (added

Light Flasher(blinking lights): This is a very basic circuit for flashing
one or more LEDS and also to alternately flash one or more LEDs.
It uses a 555 timer setup as an astable multivibrator with a variable frequency.
With the preset at its max. the flashing rate of the LED is about 1/2 a second. It can
be increased by increasing the value of the capacitor from 10uF to a higher value. For
example if it is increased to 22uF the flashing rate becomes 1 second. (added 10/05) |
