Hello all..
I have a project that I would love some help with. It's for a costume.
What I'm trying to do is use a simple 10 LED chaser circuit, but use the outputs of the IC chip to fire off individual 9v relays. I need each channel to light 16 LEDs at once. I think that this would be the best way to achieve my goal.
This was my logistical plan of doing it:
I found this 10 LED chaser kit for $7: LED CHASER KIT | AllElectronics.com
I was going to use one of these 9v relays for each channel: 9V DPDT MINI-RELAY | AllElectronics.com
Am I on the right track so far? My question starts coming with the best way to wire it all up. I'm assuming all in parallel, correct? How should I install the resistor? Should I use one big resistor at the beginning, or should I use a smaller resistor for each individual LED?
Any and all help through this project is GREATLY appreciated!!
