Every driver knows how it is sometimes difficult to start the engine of a car on a winter morning after long Parking. However, a relatively simple device powered from an AC mains voltage of 220 V will greatly facilitate this task. The device consists of two parts (Fig. 1), one AC power supply (voltage 12 to 14 V); the second part is mounted in the engine compartment of the vehicle. They are connected to each other using a special connector.

CAP-UNIVERSAL
Burned out incandescent lamps, unfortunately, not to recover but to use their metal caps is possible. To separate them from glass bulbs, the bulb wrapped in a thick cloth and crushed. Then the caps carefully and thoroughly cleaned from the composition, which to them were glued to glass flasks. The Central contact with the insulator should remain intact.
WELDING OF… NOTHING
Design welding transformer I have, so experience in this are. I want to offer the readers of my last — as it seems the most successful — the development of a welding machine is not entirely conventional design.
THE ELECTRIC GUITAR IS OUT OF THE ORDINARY
Talking about various musical instruments, it is impossible not to recall the, perhaps, popular and indispensable in modern orchestras and rock bands. Of course, this is the electric guitar.
BUCK… EXTENSION
When performing various jobs around the house was sometimes necessary to have on hand a source of electricity with lower than the normal network voltage. For example, to illuminate the water in the tank (to save the bulb from premature burnout of the filament), etc.
INSTEAD OF NEONKI – TIRATRON
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.

THE LAMP WILL SERVE LONGER
As 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.
ELECTRONIC IGNITION:OPTIONS
We 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.
