It needs a slight delay.

I think the lack of delay is perfect.

Its kinda like trying to argue with C3pO :har:

Trust me ... google the subject you will find websites and conjecture on how best to build one.

It involves a 555 chip.. big supprise.

As an aside, I found you could drive about 15 LED's in parallel with a 556 in astable mode running about 60-70 Hz. directly from the output saving lots of battery power! The 555 doesn't have the source or sink current rating. No need for a load resistor either.

Oh, man, that's great! I want one too.

Syxx_Killer 01-05-10 06:15 PM

hahaha I love it! Count me in as wanting one, too! :rotfl2:

SteamWake 01-05-10 06:19 PM

Man the guy that came up with this missed the boat. He should have patented it, marketed it, and made milllions !

darius359au 01-05-10 10:10 PM

You cant thats the thing you have to build it.

Just Google 'Most usless machine ever' and you will find links on the how to complete with schematic diagrams and component specs.

That would work on "big red button" (if time delayed) :D
