12V 20A Solar Charge Controller - The SCC3 kit is the heart of a 12 Volt solar power system, it regulates the charging of batteries from photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. A charge controller is an essential part of any solar power system. A 12 Volt solar power system can provide power to a wide variety of devices such as lighting systems, Ham and CB radios, car stereos, cell phone chargers, laptop computers, televisions, recording equipment, fans, water pumps and other 12V DC loads. With the addition of a DC to AC inverter, the DC power can be converted to 120 Volts AC for running many household electronic devices.

12V 9A Solar Power Center - The SPC3 kit contains all of the circuitry for a medium-sized solar power system. it includes a solar charge controller for battery charge regulation, a smart on/off power switch with automatic low voltage disconnect operation and a built-in white LED lighting system. Additional lights and other 12V devices can be connected to the load terminals and controlled by the SPC3. The SPC3 can regulate up to 9 amps of incoming solar power and can switch an external load of up to 10 amps. __ Designed by Solar Orbit Kit
12V Battery Absorb & Float Charger - Most battery chargers stop charging the battery when it attains its maximum charging voltage set by the circuit. This circuit charges the battery at a particular voltage, that is, absorption voltage, ...__ Electronics Projects for You
12V LED Battery Voltage Monitor - The BVM1 kit can be used to monitor the voltage of a 12 Volt battery. it features ten ultra-bright LEDs in five vivid colors for quick battery voltage measurement. One of the LEDs will briefly blink on every 1.25 seconds, keeping average power consumption low. The display is readable from dark to full sunlight. A switch-controlled low voltage beeper is included, this provides a warning when the battery voltage drops below a preset value and can help to prevent excessive discharge. __ Designed by Solar Orbit Kit
1750 Meter Lowfer Band Amplitude Modulated RF - The 74HC4060 oscillates at 6.000 MHz, and is divided by 32 to get 187.5 kHz. Pin 5 of theCD4060 is a 732 Hz square wave which can be used to modulate the output stage rather than using a micro controller, but in this instance, the modulation __ Designed by Dick Cappels
1kw Sine Wave Inverter - An inverter provides power backup for mains-based appliances in the event of a power failure. Most of the inverters available in the market have complicated circuit design and are not very...__ Electronics Projects for You

300 MHz AM RF Remote Control System - if you plan to build this project, simply replace the RE-99 receiver & TX-99 transmitter with the RWS-434 & TWS-434A RF receiver & transmitter modules found HERE. These circuits will work with any RF transmitter and receiver modules. Due to the huge interest in this project, I have just recently finished the NEW schematics. The older schematics were scanned and pretty poor quality. These new ones should make it considerably easier to recognize the parts used for the project. __ Designed by © Reynolds Electronics
38-kHz IR LED - infrared LEDs are commonly used for object detection in robots. Blinking the LED on and off 38, 000 times a second improves long-range detection and reduces false triggers. Pictures, comparisons, and a schematic demonstrate a simple, reliable, low-power 555 CMOS

4 MHz Amplitude Modulated RF Source - A while back I needed an amplitude modulated signal source at 4 MHz. This circuit was literally thrown together with parts laying on the bench. I built it dead bug style on a piece of copper clad board. it should work with little or no modification, other thano get it to oscillate, and at higher frequencies, you might have to reduce the capacitor values a little. Just be __ Designed by Dick Cappels
