Hello All and Landing Pad Project (modding the PCBH LED sequencer)

[Colonel Shofer]

Howdie all,

I am a modeller, and I am looking to integrate PIC circuits into my projects .... e.g.

Colonel Shofer's Mild OCD Model Blog: Landing Pad

I am not an electronics newbie, but I am going to pretend I am

I look forward to your assistance and I hope may contribute too

I am wanting to modify the **broken link removed**, to drive four LEDS on each channel (actually, it is just 4x3, maybe 4 x 4), as in the Helicopter Pad YT video, shown, at the link, above.

Could you please tell me, if the extra LEDs can be added, in parallel, or do I have to be more careful and complicated ... which is fine, so long as I know how (I realise I may need more resistors, at least).

Cheeky to ask for a circuit diagram? But you may love making them

if you are using More leds in parallel you connect as follows

but led driver should now be able to handle more current
