Introduction: An Electrical Mosquito Repelent
This is a simple plug and play mosquito repellent. It comes in very handy.
Step 1: What All You Will Need.
You will need the following:
A piezoelectric transducer
A 1000 ohms rectifier diode
An electric socket
An led
Acrylic
A transient voltage diode 1500W
Two Capacitors
Step 2: Soldering Together
Solder all the components together on a perfboard and add the plug socket
Step 3: Adding the Cover
Find a suitable cover for the circuit board to be kept in. I got mine from one of those plug and play electric speakers.

It doesn't look like you soldered the components in place... You would have to make your own PCB for that. It's obvious that you didn't solder at all
It looks to me like the answer to shivamgautam's question would be "Yes"
I think I've read online that these are fake, They don't repel mosquitoes at all
Sorry, But this is FAKE (Tell me why this isn't fake...)

"A 1000 ohms rectifier diode" ? ? ?
(Title) "Repelent" should be Repellent.

Yup a 1000 ohms rectifier diode
and i shall correct that spelling it usually does not happen. Thank you and please vote. :]

1K ohms, Isn't it a resistor?
You didn't correct the title...

Didn't you just disassembled a commercial mosquito repeller and assembled it back again? :D

nope i actually opened a lot of them and learned about them. After that i made one exept it turned out to look like on of the commercial repeller

hi,
is there a circuit diagram? what is the frequency of the oscillator? how did yhou pront the silk screen on the board?
