Hello friends of Instructables. I am here again. The project that I bring that is more useful for the lazy.
Imagine you're lying in your bed, it's cold and you're too lazy to get up from his bed to go turn on the light of your room. Then the same bed, you pick up the remote control for your TV and connect the lamp from your room and also off with the same control. Not a good design and interesting?
This is my project! Turn on and off the lamp in his room so many appliances in your home. The project essay around the photo down there ...

nice job man!!
wanna ask u the input source u using is '' 5v dc" but of what 'amp'??

capacitor C2 is of what value?
because your circuit diagram and schematic diagram having o.1uf & 100uf values of C2 respectively.

thnks :)

The amperage will be something about 200mA, depends of your relay!
And about the cap value, you can choice. Bigger values will make that the answer be slow and better, and lower values, faster answer and more failed!
Thank you and good luck man ;D

Hi. This is a great circuit that you have posted .I've tried rebuilding it for myself .But even after using the correct parts and rechecking their values , the circuit starts on automatically as soon as I apply the power.Could you please tell me how to stop this false triggering?
Nemweb (author) says: Jun 11, 2012. 11:38 AM
Hi. It isn't a false triggering, but it's on the circuit! Just change the ON to pin 3 and OFF to pin 2. This is normal an CD4017 start like that. My circuit also starts like that.

Thank you .This change should work great for me .

I learned all this in internet, some books and trying! Google now very thing! XD

hi,i used the tsop1738 sensor but i dont quite get how to make the insolation, so it keeps turning on and off on its own. can you help??
Nemweb (author) says: Aug 24, 2011. 11:35 AM
I don't know, but a several numbers of IR sensors have a solar light filter. The PHSC-38 have it.

is this universal??? Like can i take ANY IR code?
Nemweb (author) says: Aug 5, 2011. 10:47 AM
You can get almost all IR code
Nemweb (author) says: Dec 17, 2009. 12:37 PM
I don't understand your question!
imakethings says: Nov 4, 2009. 4:30 AM
willl it trigger the relay continuously?

imakethings says: Nov 2, 2009. 8:23 PM
can u post a schematic for IR transmitter??

Nemweb (author) says: Nov 3, 2009. 10:23 AM
The IR transmitter is a remote control of TV, CD player and other devices.
imakethings says: Nov 2, 2009. 9:27 PM
is IC1 CD4017 is a flip flop?? will it latch the realy??
Nemweb (author) says: Nov 3, 2009. 10:21 AM
no, the CD4017 is a counter. please view your datasheet to understand. bye.

Thanks for your ongoing contribution.
I suspect English may not be your native language so I should mention that the WARNING in your last step is unintelligible to me & maybe will utterly confuse others also.
I'd like to strongly suggest you either carefully re-word the warning or reply to this comment & explain exactly what you mean..
Please don't be offended, I think your project is well worth the effort of tidying up such detail, thanks again.
Nemweb (author) says: Oct 8, 2009. 12:05 PM
No matters. I'm not be offended, because I now as my English is very bad. I really thankful.
