my parents don't know I mod and they would probably flip a lid if they found out
Well allow me some time and I'll make a diagram of what I was thinking. Then you guys can tell me if it'll work or not. I think it should work but I'm not really an expert.EDIT: heres the diagram. i think it should work because the PNP transistor will only conduct if a negative charge is applied to the base. This could come from the wifi or hold switches. this would allow hold actived direct connected leds. Im not sure what number of transistor would be ideal for this so thats why there is no spacific transistor stated in the diagram. i would also need to know this to do the mod.image:let me know if you think this will work
has anyone been able to replicate this? everything i've tried seems to fail. i've tried to use both 5v and 12v lights with no success. i'm confused as to where ground would be, that is if it isn't speaker -? can anyone actually explain the science behind this? because i'm completely confused.edit: seems my ccfls wont work with this design because even though the specs say they are 12v they function the same with only a 5v source, but then again.. wouldn't they light up either way? and after doing some research on NPN transistors i'm even more confused on your schematic? wouldn't you connect the speaker+ to the base, speaker- to the emitter and then the led and its source to the collector? because in NPN transistors the base controls the current flow of the controller not the emitter?
You are misunderstood. In folklords diagram, there is no power being added to the circuit. The 3.6 or 5 volts goes straight to the led. In my diagram there is no power being added either. Think of a transistor as a switch(because thats basically what it is). When you apply power to the base, you are not actually adding power to the circuit. Rather, you are just performing the action of turning the switch on and allowing the power to pass. From the collector to the emitter.
