Hi there! I built an LED flashing circuit triggered by a microphone. I'm using 12v led strips, and 2 tip31c transistors, plus the necessary resistors. When I powered the circuit with a 12v supply it worked perfectly, but then I used a 5v 1A supply with a step up converter (up to 12V) and now the LEDs just stay on. They still flash with sound, but they just turn on and stay on as soon as I power it up. What is going on? Pic related.
