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. […]
Emergency LED Lamp Circuit with Battery Overcharge Protection

Main Features In this article I have explained an LED emergency light circuit with advanced features such as, Using Transistors only The following design of the proposed day/night automatic emergency LED […]
Cheap Semi Automatic, Tank Water Over Flow Controller Circuit
The circuit presented here monitors the level of the water rising inside a tank and automatically switches OFF the pump motor as soon as the water level reaches the brim of the tank. The proposed tank water overflow controller circuit is a semi automatic device because it can only sense an overfill and switch OFF […]
Motor Protection Circuits – Over Voltage, Over Heat, Over Current
In this post I have explained a few DC motor protection circuit from harmful conditions like over voltage and under voltage situations, over current, overload etc.. DC motor failures are commonly experienced by many of the users, especially in places where the relevant motor is run for many hours a day. Replacing motor parts or […]
Simple Crowbar Circuits for Over-voltage Protection
A handful of simple DC over voltage protector crowbar circuits are discussed in this article. I have explained the working of each crowbar circuit through the following explanation. What is Crowbar Circuit If you are wondering what is a crowbar circuit, the definition is simple. It is a circuit network where a transistor or an […]
