In this article I have explained a simple illuminated crosswalk safety light circuit for ensuring a safe walking passage for the user amidst heavy traffic. The idea was requested by Mr. John. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I recently came upon your website while researching circuits for a hobby project i’m working on. I certainly admire […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
“WELCOME” LED Display Circuit
In this post I have explained how to make a chasing “WELCOME” display circuit sign board, which illuminates each alphabet sequentially until all the 7 alphabets are lit and then the whole display shuts off, the cycle continues permanently as long as the circuit is powered. Overview I have already discussed a similar concept explaining […]
Sunrise Sunset Simulator LED Circuit
In this post I have explained how to make a sunrise/sunset simulator circuit using LEDs and just a couple of BJTs. The idea was requested by Mr. Jerry Circuit Objectives and Requirements The Design As proposed, a simple sunrise and sunset simulator circuit can be implemented using the circuit shown in the following diagram: The […]
Beacon Level Indicator Circuit for Combine Harvester Grain Tanks
In this post I have explained a beacon indicator circuit for combine harvester grain tanks. The idea was requested by Mr. John Bosch. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I would like to retrofit the rotating beacon grain tank level indicator system shown below, to my older combine harvester. The particular part of the system I want […]
Simple Faraday Flashlight – Circuit Diagram and Working
In this article I will show how to construct a Faraday flashlight circuit using only a coil/magnet assembly which requires no battery. It’s not free energy, but it converts oscillatory motion to electricity, which can power the flashlight for a couple of minutes. This flashlight will be useful in emergency situations where no access to […]
How to Add a Dimmer Facility to a LED Bulb
In this article I have explained how to make an LED dimmer circuit for enabling a dimming facility to any mains operated LEDs bulb. Update: [Using Capacitors, it Works] If you think PWM dimming control might not work for commercial LED bulbs, then the best method is to use series capacitors, which might just do […]
