    Does anyone have a recipe for a circuit that can fade two leds in and out, so that one led fades in whilst the other fades out? (Light stayes constant, but color changes). As said, I just need it for two leds. It has to run off 5V/12V is that matters.

    §§..., the metku article says that you can build two circuits with one IC.

    Does anyone know where I can get a LM324 IC? I guess I can buy them, but I was thinking about what electronic devices I can take them out of.

    I have an IC marked 98952R, which came out of a flaslight with a strobing function. Can it be used instead?

    yeah, but it looks like one led will completely go off before the other starts to come on. i want something like this:

    full, off, off
    mid, mid, off
    off, full, off
    off, mid, mid
    off, off, full
    etc.

    instead of:

    full, off, off
    mid, off, off
    off, mid, off
    off, full, off
    etc.
    which is wat it looks like on the metku site, unless i'm mistaken
