INSTEAD OF NEONKI - TIRATRON

Specialists in service and repair of industrial electrical installations will appreciate, I think, a convenient small-sized probe – “kontrolka” on 220/380 V. Indicator is not “neonka”, and the thyratron MTX-90. And as for the case, fit any size transparent (plastic or glass) bottle from under the drugs. Moreover, if the material of the “case” glass, to protect its integrity (for example, in case of an accidental drop) I recommend to wrap the probe in two or three places with electrical tape (in the form of shock-absorbing rings). Well, at the styli wear a PVC tube.

WANTED TO MAKE IRON…

during the period covering the country’s public deficit even the most that neither is ordinary iron burst in a number of regions in the category of “trudnoreshaemyh”. And is — alas! — quite expensive. But for the resourceful craftsman to make the original iron, as they say, no problem. You only need to thoroughly want… unlike the hero of the once popular song where the words are in the title of this material, the success of saadeldin guaranteed.

HAIRDRYER PAINTER

To strip layers of old paint in the repair of the “woodwork” is a handful for the home worker. Apart from the fact that the work is time-consuming and unproductive, it is also a source of debris and dust, which during the repair and without that is enough. There is, however, an easier way to remove the painted surface of the old coating, which involves the use of a gas burner or blowtorch. But use it indoors I would not recommend it at any time paint can erupt, and then the trouble will be inevitable.

THE LAMP WILL SERVE LONGER

THE LAMP WILL SERVE LONGERAs is known, operation at a higher supply voltage, the mode transition processes (with frequent switching on and off) are light bulbs guidelinesin follows: ultimately burns out the filament. Meanwhile, the lifespan of light bulbs can be considerably increased if you connect them to the AC mains via a special adapter, each of which — your… rectifier. Of course, compact: solid-state, half-wave rectified without filter.

AT THE DOOR BARKS… A TAPE RECORDER

AT THE DOOR BARKS... RECORDERIn these troubled and difficult time when the crime situation every year more complicated, the important importance of watchdog and signaling device that protects property from encroachment by criminal elements. Among these developments, I have designed instrument, to collect which can anyone, even a novice radio Amateur. Using as actuator recorder of any type, on a looped tape which recorded tigrama barking dog, it simulates presence in the building watchdog. And the electronics triggering happens at the moment of approach or touch of a human hand to the castle.

ELECTRONIC IGNITION:OPTIONS

ELECTRONIC IGNITION:OPTIONSWe are talking about different versions of electronic ignition devices (UEZ), is made as transistors and IC. The lack of scarce elements, as well as the simplicity of the schemes allow you to collect the block of electronic ignition even ignorant in electronics motorists. UEZ can work together with the ignition coil B-117 (B-117A) and B-115V, used in cars “Zhiguli”, “Moskvich” and “Zaporozhets”, and since there is no special transformer to storage capacitor, the device consumes virtually no current when the ignition is on, has small weight and dimensions.
