Sealed Jar Lamp - PIC Project This device uses 2 AA alkaline batteries to power a 1 watt LED. it has 4 power levels, plus on/off, and can run either side up. The jar light is entirely sealed with no external switches. An internal mercury switch controls all of the modes of operation. it will work under water. All components are mounted directly to the circuit board (mouse over image above). A small piece of 1/4 inch board is glued to the inside of the lid. The circuit board is fastened to this with 2 small wood screws. Nothing penetrates the lid. __ Designed by Luhan Monat - Mesa Arizona

Simple Circuit BFO Metal Detector - BFO (beat frequency oscillator) metal detectors use two oscillators, each of which produces a radio frequency. One of these oscillators uses a coil of wire that we call the search loop.

By adjusting the oscillators so their frequencies are very nearly the same, the difference between them is made audible as a beat note __ Designed by Essex Metal Detectors
