I need to drive some LEDS that could end up using more current then the transistors that I have. Would it be possible to use the transistors in parallel such as this to get a higher current capacity? The schematic is crude but I just wanted to give the idea.
The NPNs I have are rated for 600ma each and the LED(s) I need to use draw 1000-1500ma.
