    pretty complex design in unicorn, nice design but where can you find such big fat L.E.D for brakes
    i want to know a 200ohm resistace should be connected to how many L.E.Ds in series

        Well thanks for the design but right now i don't have sufficient time to open up all those things and redo

        And the major issue i had with this is the light gets scattered when it falls on the tail light glass. Hope u are able to understand the point what i meant to convey. SO i ll ve to put a circuit board or somehw place the LED's as close as possible to the glass.

        Use 4 LED's of 3v with 200ohm resistor so that LED's will last long and are sufficiently bright.

          The X pattern on the glass by the horizontal lines makes the light scatter so much. Thats why try arranging the LEDs away from the X.

              16v should be fine

                thanks buddy
                buy a 25v capacitor , seen in the pic on first page, hope it works fine

                    when you switch-off the light the L.E.D remains on for few seconds{5-7 sec} & completely goes off in 2 minutes, is this due to the use of capacitor or there is some thing wrong in my circuit, ie 4 L.E.D in series with 195 ohm resistance, 1000 micro farad capacitor 25v
                    or is this normal

                      Yes it is totally due to the capacitor. It takes a lil time to discharge completely.

                        2-3 minutes to totally discharge is normal
                        thanks buddy
