No problem, my current brainchild will use around 7 or so transistors, and 2 CMOS 556s. It has the advantage of being extremely power efficient, based loosely on the same tech joule thief's are (see CMOS 555 Long Duration LED Flyback Flasher). It will take a couple of days to draw the schematic (which I will post when I'm done), and a bit longer to lay it out and test it.
The potential negative of the design is it will have a 30Khz (or so) square wave, which will be fairly noisy in the RF spectrum. I don't think it will be a problem, but the possibility is there.
How would you feel about reversing D11/D12 and D9/D10 patterns, so the front is flashing the red and back is flashing the blue (and visa versa)? It would solve some technical issues.
