Led Strip

How to build a LED string ? String of Lights ? a Tinsel Garland ?

This circuit is :

  • 1 button to start
  • 1 RESET
  • a string of auto-switches, as many as you want
  • the corresponding lights (here, one per auto-switch)

When you press one time the button, the cycle start turning the first light on and the next, etc. The last auto-switch is connected to the first to complete the loop.
Press RESET and the cycle stop completely until you press SET again.

This peculiar circuit have a feature or a flaw, depending on your views :)

When you hit the SET again, another will light on, and will be keep into the sequence ! And again ! And again, until you flood the circuit (when all lights are on, all auto-switches on)

Be creative !


each time you press the button, a new light is added to the loop
