Nerdtastic Christmas Tree

[HardOCP News]

Don't have the time or energy to cut down a real tree for Christmas? Can't afford a fake one? Make an LED tree like this and you are all set.

Nice!

Time to improve on the idea though. I've got some single transistor LED drivers (I design synthesizers) that will follow the input voltage. Could make it pulse or fade with just a few more parts.

Just too much win in this. You should make a set with different effects, or one with selectable effects.

That is really small and creative.

Knowing what forum this is, I fully expect your version to use something like a car battery and thousands (tens?) of LEDs

Those are stripper poles and require lots of $ to work.

I am doing a 3D tree on 3 9volts. the retailer did no have the right resistor I was loking for nor the capacitor for blinking.
