Spitfire1.2:
Hello!

  I a bit confused with a circuit on LTspice and I need your help if possible.

I tried simulating the following circuit, from my calculation the power on the Led should be around 20mA, but the simulated circuit shows 1.07mA. I tried the same circuit on other simple online simulators like part-sim and falstad and I got the 20mA. Is there something critical that I am missing?  Or is it a design error in LTspice?

Thanks for your time!

EEEnthusiast:
Can  you reverse the C & E of Q2 and try again?

rstofer:
What's R5 suppose to represent?

StillTrying:
And what does R3 do, it just looks like a jumble of components to me. :)

Spitfire1.2:
R5 is the Led resistor, sorry but I accidentaly moved it. R3 is simulating a load on the NPN. The PNP was reversed  :palm:, i took it for granted that the collector was on the botton. Thanks for the help!
