Source for flickering LED's

[Cliff Hartle]

Does any one have a source for flickering not flashing LED's?

I'm looking for the ones that are in flameless candles.

I need to make a flickering flashlight like a fire. The ones that you get
at places like Joanne Fabrics and Michelle's used to have a chip in them
that did the flickering.

I bought some and the flickering circuit is in the LED now.

If I could find a dozen or so and rebuild the flashlight.

thanks

Feed the LED from a pseudo-random sequence generator, so the LED

turns on and off in a random pattern and the ratio to on to off
is varying.

I've heard a tale in which someone wired a speaker to one of these
flickering candles and was surprissed to hear the "happy birthday" song
.... That might be a hint about what kind of chip you need.
