12v DC latching ON-OFF touch switch by one touching plate

By this circuit you can run 3 to 36v LED or other DC load by touch. the circuit used only one touching plate, its better to use small size plate such as 1cm x 1cm aluminum foil.
1 kilo ohm resistor must used when the power supply is more than 15 or 18v, for limiting the voltage of IC4011.
Touching time for turning ON or OFF must be lower than 1 second.

Parts list:
IC4011
NPN power transistor
Transistor S9013
Diode 1N4148
Resistor 100K(2pcs)
Resistor 1K
Resistor 8.2K 
Capacitor 100nF
Capacitor 2.2uF 16v
Power LED 3 to 36v
