I'm not sure what the deal is with my title .... never the less.
Ok the story. I am working on an LED project for a car. Having said that I have the plan figured out on how I am going to build the actual power supply for the LEDs what voltage I am going to bring it down to, which I hope is a decent design. My question is this. In my assembly I am going to have two different colors of LED (white and orange) . One is going to be on all the time (White) . While the other will come on when I apply power to it (Orange). (Power will be coming from the turn signal if you are wondering) To reduce heat on the LED and prolong life I want the first white LED to switch of when power is applied to the orange one. I need some advice on what would be the best set up of doing that. And my minor snag is that The LEDs need not switch back everytime the turn signal flashes off. If there was a good way to set up say a two second delay before it switched back to the main LED would be great. Thank you in advance!
