This is my first time posting on this site so first of all let me say hello to everyone. I think this will be a very simple problem for most of you but I am electronicly challenged so I can't seem to figure it out. I have a simple light bulb circuit (+ on one side - on the other) What I need is some sort of timer. When 12 volts hits it I need for it to stay on 8 seconds and go off. I need it to do this same thing every time the power is cycled. I have tried different variations of a resistor and capacitor but can't get the results I'm looking for. I have been working on this problem for weeks and I'm begging for help. Thanks
