Hi all,
I am making myself a nightlight with some LED's and components that I have on the way, and I would just like to run this schematic past people with more experience than myself to see if it's workable.
The reason I am using the flasher circuit is because I'm pretty sure that if I set the flash rate fast enough that it isn't noticeable, then I will be able to double the number of LED's that my power supply can run. I bought an AC to DC power module from eBay, which outputs 12V but with a maximum current of 300mA. I am using 100mA LED's (as I have these laying around and have nothing better to use them for).
The blue dashed square is the 555 PWM signal generator circuit, and the original came from this website:
**broken link removed**
The red dashed square is the LED Flasher Circuit, which came from this site:

Does my plan make sense and better yet, will it work?
I tried to label as many things as I could to make it very clear exactly what I plan to do
.
Thanks in advance
Denno
