Hi Everyone. Let me start by saying I know absolutley nothing about electronics, circuits or curcuit boards but can do what I'm told.
I need help in making a visual panel that has two blinking led's that will run off a 12v transformer. This will be put into a dummy alarm bell box. I did buy a bell box and tried to get the led's flashing but they seemed to flash in a "triggered sequence" and then only with the battery which soon ran down.
The idea is to create a visual ditterant by having a bell box with the led's flashing although I dont have a control panel fitted.I thought I could just wire up the box to a 12v supply and it would work.(Silly me). If some one knows how to adapt the box or can draw me an idiots guide to making a circuit board to fit in the box, I would be grateful. I would also need a list of what to buy and how to build it.Also an explanation of what bit does what so I can get a better understanding of what Im doing. Thats not too much to ask is it !!!
Thanks in advance.
