Subject: | Re: Timer circuit for led array |
I haven't done a survey of the entire automotive world, but it seems as if
every car today has convenience lighting that turns on the interior lights
when the doors are unlocked and again when the car is turned off. On my
2006 Toyota truck, they turn off when the doors are locked, either with the
switch on the door or with the remote.
Perhaps a You Pick car wrecker would be a good place to grab a circuit
whole for a relative cheap price.

I believe that you will find that most of the delays etc are
controlled through the car's computer and not with individual delay
circuits. I could be wrong, have been on occasion.

Subject: | spliting 2 wires at a dsub connector |
In the sprit of the comic books that Bob has put together which have
proven so valuable
I need to split a shielded wire into 2 pins on on a DSUB. I am sure that
what I did would be an acceptable approach but is there a better way?
this is a 2 conductor shielded wire. I have already added a pigtail
using a solder sleeve
thanks for the help
I striped off a 1/4 inch strip of insulation about 1 1/2 inches back
from the pin
I
following Bob=92s comic book on splicing wires i teased out a couple of
strands of the wire to be joined
Wrapped and soldered
added shrink wrap and crimped on the pin

I'm thinking more like the circuit that lets the head lights remain on till
you get the groceries in. And did I tell you this has to be small and weigh
next to nothing !!! Thanks Rick, Dave

Subject: | Re: Timer circuit for led array |
Which is exactly the function of the automotive relay cited. It weighs
pretty close to nothing, (as close as you're likely to get anyway) is small,
about a 1" cube, is adjustable for delay time, is relatively inexpensive
(only $13.00 direct from the manufacturer in single quantities) and it will
switch up to 30 amps. Pretty good off the shelf solution to the problem I'd
say.

I don't know anything more about the relay than what's shown at that link,
but I imagine using the relay is pretty straightforward. If you have

I learned to fly in Cessnas, and as I recall leaving the beacon on was a
certain way to avoid walking away from the airplane with something still on.
Perhaps the solution to your problem is just to have the cabin light on the
same bus as the beacon.
Adding an extra gizmo is not the best way to go.
