If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.

Simple circuit for fire box flicker?

Posted by JWhite on Saturday, January 13, 2018 3:39 PM

Has anyone here done this? I'd like to mount a micro LED into the firebox of my locomotives for this effect. I can buy LEDs prewired to flash, but the flash isn't random.

I'm looking for ideas on how to accomplish this.
