Back to basics with a super simple night light that can be tweaked if desired.

When Clive modded the cloud lights a while back I bought a few of them as well as the clover shaped ones and modified them all with slow color changing 5mm LEDs. They are all still in service either with me or with family. Great fun and a great effect, and one that would lend itself well to ol' Baymax there for certain!

Seems like a futile saving, but I suppose when your profit is measures in pennies, one less resistor could make a difference. `I wonder what effect the number of omitted components has on the likelihood of spontaneous combustion..
