What you say makes a lot of sense. A hardware solution probably would be best. It would probably be simpler to charge a capacitor and discharge it through the LEDs via a resistor. It would have the advantage of being a very small capacitor too. I already have the timer module. BUT I would still like to have a bash at this using a microprocessor.

I was just reading about overclocking the Pi Pico and wondering about trying that. Apparently the ESP32 is really good for clock control. I have one on the way. It might be here on the 5th which would be really helpful as my job winds down tomorrow. It's probably time I sought something better but I have to say I do enjoy the summers free. Maybe here, maybe in another country.
