A circuit design, based on a C-mos chip to Drive a Car Ignition Coil. This is a Very Simple and Efficient Design for an Electric Fence. It puts out a Very high Voltage Current pulse, yet it draws a very small average Current from the battery or supply. As Accurate as I can Measure, the `AVERAGE Current Draw` varies between: 20 uA at at Slow Pulse setting to about 85 uA at the fast pulse setting. So Battery life is `Really Good` and this makes a Good Electric Fence. Due to a High Peak Current Draw, this Fencer will NOT work properly, just running from a Power Adapter or a work-bench power supply. This Electric Fence Should be powered by a 12 Volt Battery and this battery. Should have a Trickle Charger on it.

A Small "Solar Panal" would do this quite well. (Occassional Cycle Charging a car battery or Sealed lead acid Battery is not a good idea.) THE CASE OF THE COIL SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO EITHER GROUND OR THE DIST. TERMINAL. FAILURE TO DO SO, MAY RESULT IN THE CASE BECOMING ELECTRICALLY HOT. On Some Ignition Coils, the Points Terminal is Marked as "Dist" for Distributor and on some others it is marked as "Neg" or "-" C2 Determines the duration of the pulse and VR1 determines the number of pulses per second. The Values shown give good Results. The LED and R4 are Optional. They just show its working. After assembly of the Circuit board, All Solder Flux Should be Removed from it. Solder Flux CAN Become Conductive in the presence of Moisture and this can result in eventual failure.Also both the "Circuit Board and Coil Must be Protected from Rain and Snow". Suitable Insulators must be used on the fence, or Rain will short it out. It Won't damage the circuit if that happens, But it also won't shock anything. Not much else I can say now, maybe more later. An Etched and drilled PCB's is Available from me.
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
