Yes there is a known bug with the red light. Stamps don't have a decent timer so I decided this was close enough:smash:
This code also only handles one side of the tree.
Stamps can only sink 25ma per input with a max chip rating of 50ma. If this were an industrial design I'd put a driver in the outputs, but since really only one output is on at a time it can directly drive an optocoupled solidstate relay, like one of these opto22's have lying around here, tho I'd bet there's a cheaper way to do it.
PLC's on the other hand can usually be configured to directly drive line voltages no problem or low voltage or TTL if you're so inclined.

5 minutes? Wow you the man!
Cool man, post your code! Lets see the magic :D:D
So did you write this in pBasic? and if so how do you burn that code into a PIC? Wouldn't the PIC need the basic interperter???
Or do you have a PBasic compiler <Drool>
