#179616 - What are the switches?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
What are you using to switch the LED's on/off? The fact they're still glowing suggests that there's still current flowing through the LED's, so the switches aren't fully off. Surely you're not expecting the PCI to handle those 24-volts, so you must have some sort of switch in the path.

What am I missing here?

Have you considered a MOSFET in the 24-volt supply?
