I built this mechanically dimming lamp because, I hated the flicker of LED's when you dim them down. This flicker ruined my romantic dinners with my wife turning them into some sort of rave party. So using the idea of a camera aperture or iris. I designed and built this one of a kind lamp to mechanically dim light rather than do it electronically. In turn, saving my romantic dinners with my wife and ending rave parties at my house forever.

Let’s take it back to basic by modeling the traffic lights circuit on a Powered Breadboard PBB-272B and with a few other electronics components. This circuit turns ON the green LED, keeps it ON for some time, then turns ON the yellow LED for a moment, and finally turns ON the red LED for almost the same duration as the green LED. This cycle again starts from the green LED.

If you don't have a dimmer switch installed in your lighting setup, there are still several ways to achieve a dimming effect. Some of these methods may not provide the same level of control as a dimmer switch, but they can help create a softer and more comfortable lighting atmosphere in your space.
Always follow safety guidelines when modifying or adjusting lighting fixtures.
