How to make a 220V mini hydroelectric power station on a stream from trash
Free electricity is the dream of many. Some people get it from solar panels, others build wind generators. As a result, the former have electricity only on sunny days, and the latter on windy days. A more permanent stable source for receiving
How to make a simple regulator for a 220 V transformer
The regulator is used to change the alternating voltage supplied to lamps and other household devices with low and medium power.The regulator circuit is assembled on the basis of a triac, which provides a noticeably lower level of interference in the supply network
Simple 220V inverter circuit for transformers with two terminals
Typically, the simplest converter from 12 to 220 V is built on one transistor and a transformer with a three-terminal primary winding. By positive feedback, the generator on the transistor is excited and generation occurs. From the secondary winding
How to make a spot welder from an old microwave transformer
In a home workshop there is always a use for a spot welding machine, but the simplest of them in a store costs from several thousand rubles. If you remove a transformer from an old microwave oven, you can make such a device yourself using
How to make a resistance welding machine from a car battery
Capacitive batteries for electric bicycles or electric motorcycles are very expensive, so it is cheaper to make them yourself by connecting 18650 batteries together. But to ensure that such an assembly does not fail, jumpers must be welded to the batteries. This is done
An induction heater from AliExpress heats up pliers in a couple of minutes
This miniature device with quite high power is simply a godsend for a small workshop. Using this induction heater, you can heat metal workpieces to red hot in a matter of seconds, which is useful for both tempering
Do-it-yourself automatic battery-powered cabinet lighting
In less than an hour, you can assemble a simple closet light that turns on automatically when the doors are opened.Thanks to the battery, it will work even in the absence of electricity. The economical LED used in it will allow
How to make an almost free air conditioner in your home with minimal energy consumption
With the onset of summer, I really want to turn on the air conditioner, but few people buy it, since it is quite expensive and also consumes a lot of electricity. If you have a well on your property, you can use cold water from it,
A useful attachment to a multimeter for measuring low-resistance resistors
When remaking computer power supplies, you need to make a resistor up to one ohm. I managed to buy Manganin. Some people use stainless steel. To select the desired segment, you need to know its resistance. I make resistors of the order of 0.01-0.05 Ohm.
How to make a 220V generator from a washing machine motor and a brush cutter motor
In order not to be left without electricity during network outages, as well as to use electrical appliances where there is no electrification at all, you need an electric generator. This does not have to be a purchased device, for unpretentious consumers
Simple short circuit protection circuit
The DC circuit protection circuit is easy to assemble and does not require configuration. It is capable of not only monitoring a short circuit in the circuit, but also monitoring the voltage drop across the load. The device has an operation indication and a start button.
Li-ion battery charger circuit with full charge indicator
The circuit is designed to optically indicate that the lithium-ion battery has reached full charge and is included in the gap between a voltage source of 6 to 12 V and the battery being charged. The charge status is indicated by a glowing LED, when
How to make an ice maker with your own hands
A portable, low-voltage ice maker is quite easy to assemble with your own hands, even for a novice DIYer. This installation contains a minimum of parts and has a power of about 150 W. The design is extremely simple and does not require configuration. Her
How to make a simple driver for the engine of an old HDD
The device is a switch of control actions and is designed to work with low-power brushless (otherwise brushless) electric motors, provided their windings are connected in a star. A typical example of such units is a drive
Scheme of reversible control of an electric motor with two clock buttons
The device is designed to control an electric motor for children's toys, powered by a AA battery. It turns it on by selecting the direction of rotation of the rotor. The functions of the control elements are performed by pressing the circuit,
