Hi i am doing an electronics course at college so should know this but i cant for the life of me remeber.
Anyway, what i would like to do is put some led strips in my car just in the boot so i can see a bit clearer. This i can do. The problem is that im pretty sure that once i switch the LED's off they will still stay on dimly. The power supply is a little under 13V so a 12v supply. However when the switch is turned of there is still 11.8V or so supply. This is fine for the normal filament bulb but im thinking not so much for the LED strips.
Im sure there is a circuit that can stop the supply once it gets below a set 12V trigger.
Thanks in advance for the help.
