    Low Battery Circuit

    I figured that much. heh. [thumbsup]

    Low Battery Circuit

    The safety device itself will actually be passive until the user interacts with it. Thus saving power when its not being used. Thats kind of why I like Keith's idea of giving the user an indication upon 'turning on' the device. That way, hopefully, they will take note of the fact that the...

    Low Battery Circuit

    There is definitely a need for the extra circuit. VE1BLL: Good point. Don't know if I'll be able to untangle the main circuit from the low battery circuit but I'll take a look at it! Thanks

    Low Battery Circuit

    This is actually going to be a small safety device. So the conundrum I'm in is the need to warn of impending power loss at the sacrifice of losing more power! This is true for all battery indicators. Ironic JimKirk: I've debated the idea of the fading 'Good' light but I can't help shrug off...

    Low Battery Circuit

    Hmm, battery indication on start-up.... I need to swim that around the noodle. Although its counter intuitive for the low battery, its a darn good way of showing that the battery is good. Solves the problem by showing the opposite. I liked the idea of the flashing light...

    Low Battery Circuit

    Oh, heh. Sorry, just realized that was suppose to be 4 buttons. Even that isn't much of a help though. Anyways. Thats kind of the conclusion that I came down to. Thats kind of why I'm in this design issue. Any low-voltage alternatives that might come in mind?

    Low Battery Circuit

    Hello, have a circuit question for you guys! I'm trying to incorporate a low battery indicator to an existing circuit and looking for some help/advice. Unfortunately the circuit itself is already a low voltage circuit, (x2) 1.5V button batteries. Additionally, the circuit has to be as minimal in...

    Thermistor

    JKelly (and anyone): I've found myself in the same situation of trying to find a simple hardware solution. Unfortunately I haven't found a solution yet. I'm not trying to hi-jack your thread, nor do I want to start a new one since your issue is very similar. I figure an inquiry on how far...
