KevinAlaska Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Hello Everyone and thank you for your time in reading this.I have a year of electronics in college but that was more then 18 years ago and I have forgotten probably half of it. So please bare with me. A few years ago I purchased this little Christmas Ornaments that you plug into the little light bulb sockets on the christmas lights on the tree. I really do like them and had the idea of making some for girfts next year. These lights only have a single blue LED in a clear plastic ice cute guy. I was hoping to make something a little more fun with more LED colors that sort of phase into the other colors kind of slowly with an small overlapping in color period. Maybe 3 colors... heck... maybe 4.... lol or just maybe Red and Green colors. I guess I am not too picky. I would guess Christmas lights run on a 110VAC here in the USA. So I am not sure how this could be achieved safely with LEDs and some Diodes and maybe with some capacitors. Maybe I am way of base. Maybe I am needing some kind of chip for this task. what ever I do I would like it to 1) be small to fix correctly if possible. 2) cheep would be second best. 4 kids make the pocket book small with my budget. These are not all required but would be nice.So with this all said, would anyone have any advice on how I could get started trying to figure out this thing. I know if I dont get this going now I will NEVER get them done before next Christmas.Well thank you EVERYONE for your time again. Best Wishes allKevin in Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
