I have a flashlight with a strobe mode and need to know how to slow down the strobe on it. Please tell me if I should add a resistor or vary the power source to slow and NOT dim the strobe light.

\$\begingroup\$ A very hand wavey question. But the answer you're looking for is: you need to reprogram the micro controller that is in the device. \$\endgroup\$– PuffafishMay 22, 2017 at 12:13

\$\begingroup\$ Show us a schematic of the flashlight circuit, and take out the part about flashlights. Then we can help. \$\endgroup\$– Voltage Spike ♦May 22, 2017 at 16:13

I don't think that is possible, since these kinds of functions on flashlights are usually controlled by microcontroller and not by discrete electronics. At least I have never seen one where that was the case.
