How to Make an LED Blinker Circuit (Po-Po- Lights)

This is a companion video for our Circuit Component Super Series at Motbots.com. In this video we make The LED Blinker Circuit that was a circuit example in Part 3 of our series titled, "How Components Work Together in Real Circuits."

It's encouraged that you go check out our Circuit Component Super Series, particularly "How Components Work Together in Real Circuits," to gain a better understanding of how the components used for this circuit work together to blink LEDs. (Link below)
