hello to all
i was hoping someone could help me with a little project i am working on, i have made chandeliers for home and have bought flickering led candle lights which give the desired effect,these led,s are cheap,poundshop things but do the job,they make the light fitting look like a real candle chandelier, however they are battery driven and each has a seperate switch , i want to switch all five led,s on using mains voltage, obviously this will require a transformer and rectifier, or an led driver, if an led driver is suitable for the job which i am unsure of,also unsure if i have to add resistors to the circuit, i have experimented with three led,s and a simple plug in transformer of 4.5 v dc and this worked for the short time i tested, any advice please.
