This project explains how to build a fully automatic ultrasonic water level controller where the water pump motor starts automatically when the tank level goes below a preset LOW level and stops automatically when the tank becomes FULL. The whole system is wireless, reliable, and there are no corrosion problems because the ultrasonic sensor never […]

3-Step Automatic Fast Battery Charger/Controller Circuit
Generally it is noticed that while charging batteries people hardly pay any special attention toward the procedures. For them charging a battery is simply connecting any DC supply with matching voltage with the battery terminals. A fast battery charger circuit charges a battery with enhanced speed so that it is charged in less time than the specified period. […]
Automatic Street Light Dimmer Circuit
In this post I will show how to construct an Arduino automatic street light dimmer circuit, which can reduce its brightness when no vehicle is passing in the road to save power. Overview We will be exploring the methodology of sensing the vehicle or human being without false detection which may occur due to animals […]
Automatic Irrigation Circuit using Arduino
In this post I will show how to construct an automated water irrigation system for small garden using arduino and soil moisture sensor. Introduction The proposed system can monitor the soil moisture level and when soil moisture goes below preset value, the 12V DC pump will be triggered for predetermined period of time. The status […]
Simple 48V Automatic Battery Charger Circuit
The proposed 48 V automatic battery charger circuit will charge any 48 V battery up to an optimal 56 V full charge level, utilizing very ordinary components. The circuit is highly accurate with its over charge cut off features. Circuit Description: As shown in the circuit diagram, the main element in the circuit is the opamp IC 741, which has been arranged as a comparator. Pin#3 […]
SMS Based Pump Controller with Automatic Dry Run Shut Off
In this post I will show how to construct a SMS based water pump controller with automatic shutdown of pump when no water flow through the pump is detected. We will also construct another much simpler automatic dry run preventer circuit without GSM in the next half of the article. What is Dry Run in […]
