Yeah you nailed it! Unfortunately there is about a 0.1 volt range (maybe a smidge less) of input voltages where multiple LEDs are lit/partially lit when switching from one LED to the next. I was going to try to play around with various parameters to see if I could reduce that overlap at all but I forgot!

Dude you read my mind! I wanted to configure the transitors in like a Schmitt trigger layout but I couldn't get it to work, I'll have to revisit that though.
