Car Bulb Power Flasher
Derived from the Two-wire Lamp Flasher design, hosted on RED Free Circuit Designs since 1999, this astonishingly simple circuit allows one or two powerful 12V 21W car bulbs to be driven in flashing mode by means of a power MosFet.
Devices of this kind are particularly suited for road, traffic and yard alerts and in all cases where mains supply is not available but a powerful flashing light is yet necessary.
