A bicycle horn is normally used in bicycles for generating an amplified alarm sound with a press of a button for alerting anybody getting on the path of the running bicycle. In this post I have explained the complete construction of an electronic bicycle horn circuit which will resemble a phone musical ringtone sound. Introduction […]

Electronic 12V DC Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) Circuits
In the following post I have explained a simple yet enhanced 12V capacitive discharge ignition system which derives its operating voltage from the battery instead of the alternator for generating the igniting sparks. Since it works independently from the alternator voltage, without depending on a pickup coil signal, it is able to function more efficiently […]
High Voltage, High Current DC Regulator Circuit
We all are pretty familiar with the 78XX voltage regulator ICs or the adjustable types such as LM317, LM338 etc. Though these regulators are outstanding with their specified functioning and reliability, these regulators have one big disadvantage…. they won’t control anything above 35V. Circuit Operation The circuit presented in the following article introduces a DC […]
Cell Phone Call Alert Security Circuit
This circuit will give call back alerts in the form of blank calls on your cell phone whenever it senses a break in or intrusion inside the particular restricted area where it has been installed for the intended security monitoring. Introduction The cell phone call alert security system circuit which needs to be installed incorporates […]
Motorcycle Low Battery Over Discharge Protector Circuit
A simple motorcycle battery over discharge protector circuit is explained in the following post. The circuit will prevent the battery from over-discharging by the motorcycle headlamp whenever the mo-bike alternator is not enabled or is idling in the neutral mode in which case the battery is normally subjected to excess loads via the headlamp bulb. […]
Cellphone Controlled Car Starter Circuit
The post presents a simple cellphone triggered remote control circuit that can be applied as a cellphone operated remote car starter. The unit would cost less than $20 to build. I have already covered quite a few interesting cellphone remote control circuits in this blog, all of which can be implemented to control or toggle […]
