Hai Guys this is my another DIY

A follow me home lamp works when you turn off your engine and lights, the lights stay on for a pre-set period (Depend on the capacitor we use, i have 13sec backup. more the time if you increase the capacity of the capacitor) & then automatically turn off. this is to allow you to find your way to your door in the dark. if you turn off your lights & then your engine, the lights go out straight away as normal. I connected my Drls to this Circuit

Here is my Very Simple Circuit.

Hi,

that is a very good idea. Can you please elaborate bit more -

1. Any online place to order such capacitor ?
2. More easy connection diagram with lights

Thanks

Hello!

Awesome idea!

I tried it, but I have some problems. I had the same setup You used on diagram. But when I connected everything, the voltage on light bulb was only 5.xx V. So thebulb was not shining bright. Could You say, what is the problem?

Best wishes,
