hi every one hope you ar all ok

right lets get to it
bought a 4 channel light sequencer off ebay came with a schematic attached
just would like on of the experts check it out for me

it says 12v to a maximum of 18v why ??? i want it to run at 24v for my 24v leds
i have run it for 2 hours at 24v and seems fime to me
just need it checking
thanks

Hi

Looks like vds and threshold is ok for the specified mosfet. 78L05 should be ok with 24v input. Looks to me like it will work ok. However, you might want to check the values of the current limiting resistors for the LEDs attached to the drain of each mosfet.

would changing the max voltage of C2 make a difference ?
thanks

Hello,

Changing the leds will not do much.
Red and green leds will have almost the same forward voltage.
Better double the values of R3, R5, R7 and R9.
