B1____________Existing V DC source: any type in the range 3-24V                       suited to the lamp adopted

Device purpose:

This circuit has been designed to provide that continuous light lamps already wired into a circuit, become flashing. Simply insert the circuit between existing lamp and negative supply.
Especially suited for car or panel pilot lights, this device can drive lamps up to 10W.

Notes:

Break lamp(s) to negative supply connection(s), then insert the circuit between existing lamp(s) connection(s) and negative supply (respecting polarities!).

C1 value can be varied from 100 to 1000?F or higher, in order to change flashing frequency.

Although rather oversized, this circuit can also drive any LED, providing a suitable resistor is fitted in series with the light emitting device.

The resistor should be in the range 47R to 2K2, depending on supply voltage.
