Most people don`t know it, but there are usually over a dozen, battery backup systems in your home already. The average American around 18 battery backed up devices in their home. These battery backup systems backup the crucial, expensive, or mobile electronics, right under your nose. Examples of battery backed up consumer electronics including the SMOKE

ALARMS that beep in the night. Other examples include: wireless or satellite phones, laptop computers, MP3 players, tablet computers, and a variety of GPS devices all qualify. The battery on board design allows consumers to plug their appliances and electronics directly into any power grid without worry. Other devices just run on Direct Power rather than the Alternating power that comes from the wall. Many consumer plugs change this power to Direct Current, the same type of power that comes from a battery inside the plug. A battery discharges and is charged with DC power or Direct Current, so by switching the current, inside the power plug, the accessory can be smaller and lighter. The photo at right shows a number of different types of AC-DC wall plugs that actually charge the batteries, or circuits of your electronics, right now. These AC-DC transformers convert the alternating current into a positive and negative current on the appropriate wires. Each has a rating clearly marked on the power supply that shows the maximum output voltage, and amperage. The power from the wall is AC power, Alternating Current, or a positive and negative voltage on one wire, alternating at 50 - 60 times a second. The other wire is the return path to ground. The return path allows for a safe circuit to form, and the power can flow. To separate the positive and negative voltage from each other, a series of 4 diodes are needed and a bridging...
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.....
