Found a great kit here: <a href="http://www.bakatronics.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=346" class="inline-onebox" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">FK118 Rotating Chaser Kit, 16 LEDs</a>
It has 16 LEDs, with 4 on at a time, so each lens is super bright. It could be possible to rig up the different colors like in GB:TVG. I’ll post pictures and possibly a video tomorrow.

I found a wiring diagram for a dual LED flasher in an old electronics book. I’m going to try to double this up for the <a href="https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/cyclotron" class="sitemap-autolink sitemap-autolink-content" data-sitemap-autolink="true" data-autolink-type="content" data-autolink-term="cyclotron" data-autolink-id="2012">cyclotron</a> lights.
I’m trying to do this without an IC, and I figure I can just switch capacitors to adjust the light speed.
