TOUCH OR CONTACT SWITCH

Both a touch and a contact switch are built into one 
PC board so that the builder can see how each works. 
A battery can power the contact switch but you’ll need 
an AC power supply for the touch switch to work well 
(use No. 80-040) for reasons explained in the kit. The 
circuit swiches a relay with a three amp, 110 volt rating. 
Use to switch lamps, other appliances.

80-100 ................................. $10.95


LIGHT ALARM

A sensitive photo Darlington transistor is used with CMOS 
nand gate. The circuit detects light and trigers a siren.You
 could add your own triac or relay and switch practically 
anything. The kit uses the MEL12 Darlington superalpha 
phototransistors, typically about ten times more sensitive 
than a normal phototransistor. The circuit usage includes 
burglar alarms, medicine cabinet alarm, automobile alarm etc...

80-080 ................................... $13.95


STEREO PREAMPLIFIER KIT

Amplify any tiny audio signals about fifty times, and 
deliver them to a power amplifier cleanly and undistorted. 
An AGC (automatic gain control) eliminates pops and 
distortion. This circuit will be useful in boosting the output 
from the tape heads, microphone or a magnetic phono 
cartridge etc.. For input of an audio amplifier. Requires a 
12V DC power supply at about 100 mA peak.

80-104 ................................. $11.95


UNIVERSAL TIMER

Set timer for anywhere from a few seconds to about 
15 minutes, control AC appliances; it will beep and 
trigger a relay when it has timed down. May be used 
for a darkroom or PC board exposure timer etc.. 
Turn anything on or off. Operates from 9 volt transistor battery.

80-102 ................................. $12.95


HOME CAR ALARM

This circuit is an alarm for the home or car door, and a 
lot more. It employs a magnet and reed switch to trigger 
the circuit. An integral piezo sounder produces the alarm 
sound (100dB). But, a relay capable of handling up to 
10 amps AC may be connected to turn on or off appliance, 
external alarm sounder etc. Therefore the circuit could be 
used to turn on a light whenever a basement or garage 
door is opened.

80-101 ................................. $12.95


PHOTO SENSOR WITHCONTROL RELAY

The most popular usege for this kit is to make your own nite-light. 
But you could switch just about any appliance either on or off with 
either darkness or daylight. Light sensitivity is adjustable over quite 
a range. The relay can handle up to 10 amps AC. You need to add 
a nine volt transistor battery or a nine volt, 25 mA supply.

80-103 ................................... $9.95


SOUND EFFECTS GENERATOR

Another novel circuit that might be useful for special theatrical 
effects. Or if you are simply a practial joker. The circuit can 
produce sounds such as a tick-tock of a grandfather clock, 
a heart monitor (as in the hospital), water on a tin roof, a 
motor boat, cricket, etc.. Requires a 9 volt battery. 
Includes its own speaker.

80-106 ................................... $9.95


VOICE CHANGER

Your voice can be changed to add a vibrato, like those used 
to disguise secret witnesses. Or, you may change your voice 
tone upward or downward; women sound like men and vise 
versa. Includes a very ROBOTIC voice as well. A microphone 
and speaker are included on the PC board, all that you need to 
add is a nine volt transistor battery. This is a very novel and 
entertaining circuit.
