I agree, there are lots of simpler ways to turn on and off an LED, a toggle switch comes to mind. However, I'm guessing the TS is trying to learn all about circuits so he has posted a question here about a circuit using SCR's and transistors.No one seems to have spotted that the SCR can be unlatched by breaking the supply current - push to break buttons aren't all that hard to find, and it saves a transistor.
