No, a mobile adapter works with 220v AC power supply.

That is what this instructable is all about..

Thanks a lot..:)

Thanks..yes that's true. However, you always don't need to calibrate using another compass. You can observe the direction of sun and orientation of magnet to get the right direction.

Nope, its not about amperes. Its just a very small project and uses electromagnetic field to excite the electrons inside the neon and fluorescent lights. It doesn't actually transmit electricity.

Haha...Yeah, it great fun to watch it move.

Thanks..I am glad you like it..:)

I have been a memeber of instructable for a very long time. I always try to make good descriptive instructables and mostly all my instructables are featured.Yesterday, I made a new instructable of a walking robot (https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-Walki...) which did not get featured.Kindly, point out my mistakes and suggest me some improvements, so that this instructable can get featured and i avoid this mistake in future.Thanks & Regards,techgenie (https://www.instructables.com/member/Techgenie/ins...)

Great....:)

Great...How does it work??Can you share the pic??

Yes, if an iphone has wireless functionality then it will work.Also, these days its possible to provide wireless functionality to any phone using a receiver charging pad. If you would like to convert any phone to wireless charging phone, have a look: https://youtu.be/CBLqKHwZdvI

I got the PCB Assembly for about $19 and then around 2 hrs of work in design & construction.Its about 1/3rd the price of a commercial market product. It performs much better than those and also, i had the flexibility to design it myself.

Hello DanF49,The design i made needed long wires, so i had to extend them but it is not necessary to extend the wires.

Thanks...I am glad you like it..:)

Hello rjramos424, The concept behind this project is simple. When the battery is connected to a DC motor, it starts to rotate.Now, this project uses just two motors for moving in the three directions (not backward because it was not needed here). If you have read the instructable well, you might have already understood the concept.As here, both the motors are independently controlled by two switches. When the left motor moves clockwise the robot turns "RIGHT" and when right motor moves clockwise, the robot turns "LEFT". When both the motors moves clockwise, the robot runs "FORWARD".

Hi vidyam4,For making a car wireless, you need a wireless receiver and transmitter module. This module should be used to control the car with a remote.I have made a wireless remote control car as well, have a look - https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-Remote-Control-Car/

The concept is quite simple. A nichrome has a great property that on supplying current, it acts as a high resistance load. Also, nichrome wire gets heated to a very high temperature quickly when applying current through it.

No, a 12v battery cannot be charged with TP4056 module. Also, 12v battery doesnt need a boost converter.If you want to use a single 12v battery. You need a 7805 voltage regulator IC to convert it to 5v and also a heat sink over the regulator to absorb extra heat.

The design you showed seems good but the batteries cannot be charged with a 5v mobile adapter because the two batteries connected in series have resultant of 7.4v 4000mah current(two such piar makes it 7.4v, 8000mAh), for this you atleast need a 9v 2A power adapter to efficiently charge all the 4 batteries in around 5 hrs. Also, there is no over-discharge protection.

Thanks #RobertS251...a conductive paint is a commercial solution and an aluminium foil is a simple home solution. I don't have any idea but i think that may be conductive paint might also cost more.

Thanks, I am glad you liked it. Although, i have disassembled a keyboard from PC, so i am unaware if this method can work. This method is not useful for laptop keyboard as the keys there use metal contacts.

Ohh yes, this is a great idea, paper will surely help to glue more reliably.

No, this solution only works for the remote. Phone buttons are much more compact and sealed differently. You can remove the keypad but there is a metal contact beneath it which cannot be removed without damaging it.

Hello #Augusto Tamayo you can do a bit of cleaning but using aluminium foil in car key remote will not work. Disassemble the key remote and see, if there are contacts similar to that of a remote then it will work but mostly, the car keys have metal contacts that can work just by cleaning the corrosive residue.

Yes, SIN1T2, it seems like a great tip to use gears and shafts but the motor from a printer has very low rpm, it takes quite a long time to wrap the coil.

Its really great #XiR_ Thanks for the wonderful tip to tight the wire. Seems like a very good build. After observing, i see that you are using TP4056 with protection module, is it allowing the wire to get red hot..?? Because when i tried, it restricted the current output to the wire and thus, the wire was not able to get hot quickly.

Thanks EarlWallaceNYC....thanks a lot..:)

Thanks Thorondor95....But if you wish, you can give your vote for my other instructables that are participating in the contests. One if them is DIY Coil winding machine - https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Coil-Winding-...Please, only vote, If you like the project....Thanks..

Thanks...

Thanks NeilRG...its a great tip. I will definitely get my hands on 3D printing and post some useful projects soon.

Thanks EarlWallaceNYC...I am glad you liked this project. Also, thanks for the interesting insights and important points to note.Only, if you really liked the project. Can you give me your vote for this instructables contest?

Thanks #PeteBuxton...really thanks for the vote..

Hehe...Yes, i think so, but this project is very tiny to cause any harm.

Thanks Count Volta...I am glad you liked it..)

Thanks Techno_Bot01....I am glad you liked it.

Thanks a lot ravijag...:)

Hehe....Thanks Javier AdrianU....but there was no ongoing contest when i posted this instructable.

Thanks ScottyGolden,Yes, it will work with any bottle caps..:-p..but yes, i think with a 3D printer this can be improved a lot.

Yes, it can be used with any number of cells. Only thing to consider is that they should be connected in parallel, so the input voltage if 3.7v.Also, the charging time of power bank will increase with more batteries.

I am glad you liked it....Thanks for appreciating my work..:)

I am glad you liked it..Thanks...

Great build..Yes getting the wire to tense is quite difficult but a simple method will be to use a spring from any ball pen at one of the ends. The spring will keep the wire straight.

A turn ratio of 100:1 will work for any gauge of wire. However, it all depends on power supplied. Wind about 200 turns of wire and it should work with 9v 500mA power source.

I do have a 3D printer but i am not very good in designing. Although i am slowly learning to 3D design objects. Can you suggest me some good sources from where i can learn 3D designing?

I am glad you liked it, yes this mechanism can be used as a rope if it is scaled to a bigger project with a more powerful motor.

Thanks a lot..:)

Muchas gracias..:)

Yes, you can give it a try but i don't think you would be able to wrap about 200 turns on a 10cm length but yes, you can surely overlap them.

You can now easily get the wire online from ebay or amazon. You only need know the required AWG of the wire. Here i have used 32 AWG enameled wire.

#PeteBuxton Your machine looks awesome. Thanks for appreciating my work..:)

Thanks bro..

Yes, quite a lot..

#Gadisha Thanks..

Thanks for the great tip and thanks for appreciating my work..:)

Thanks..

Thanks a lot..

I am glad you liked it..Do you have the link to the other person's work?

Thanks..:)and yes, it does feel amazing when it works..

Yes, it is completely safe to touch the coils and the ball, if the project is powered by a 9v battery, however, the transistor can get very hot, so avoid touching it.

Thanks for the tip Techno_Bot01, is 2N3055 much better than 2N2222..??

Seems like a good idea. A computer cooling fan will also work great.

Hello Thorondor95,This design is not quite practical to be operated for very long periods. However, using a heat sink with transistor can surely increase the run time but still i don't thick that it can be used a desk lamp.

Thanks..I'm glad you liked it..

Really?It is quite simple to make, however, If you plan on making this i would suggest you to use a mini quadcopter like propellers instead of any other. They help in blowing a lot more wind.

Yes, that's right but with 9v battery you don't need any clips because it already has clips over it. However, you can use the wooden case as ice cream holder.

Thanks....m glad you liked it..

Thanks bro...Your support does matter a lot..:)
