Hello, I'm working on a shadow wall project for fun but I've seem to run into a problem getting the light to operate on a delay. To explain, I'm trying to make it so that someone can flip a light switch then about 5 seconds later a light will flash on for 1 second and turn off. A friend suggested getting a 555 TIMER 8 Pin DIP and hooking it up to that but from my limited knowledge, I think this will only make is so the light turns on for a second and turns off after someone flips the switch but what I really don't understand is how to make it first start out with e a 5 second delay before lighting up for the 1 second.
Also can anyway explain the difference between the 555 timer dip and this time delay relay in the link below?
