Components: R1 - 22K R2 - 22K R3 - 1K C1 - 100 microFarad C2 - 100 nF C3 - 100 nF C4 - 22 microFarad TR1 = TR2 - BC237B or similar IC - SN78L12 DZ1 - zener diode 12V 1/4watt DZ1 - zener diode 3.3V 1/4watt The power is by 2 X 9V batteries, when battery voltage is more then 16V ( 12 + 3.3 + 0.7 (base/emitter voltage)) TR1 is saturated and collector voltage is about zero, then led is off; when battery voltage is less then 16V TR1 is off and the collector voltage is near 12V and the led is on; the value of R3 can be decreased to have more brightness.
