#164990 - Michael circuit is fine with some diff values.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Replace Q2,Q3 with your TIP darlington.

Use 1k0 for R3
Use 8k2 for R4

I have not read the hFE for your TIP, but at a guess it will be ~10000 so will easily saturate with less than 1mA base current.

Do not dream of 2N3055s. They have a minimum hFE of about 20. And fairly high leakage currents.

            Success!            01/01/70 00:00      
               You use a Darlington, ...            01/01/70 00:00
