    Hey everyone! The comment section has finally been re-enabled over the whole channel after 2 years by UA-cam themselves who shut it down in the first place. Glad to be in touch with my viewers again! :)

    This laser alarm system is a cool thing, but it would be nice if you recorded how you build it on a breadboard because some people don't have the ability to solder. I would be very grateful to you for showing how to build this alarm system on a breadboard step by step, it's a brilliant idea :)

      I will consider your tip for similar future projects like the laser alarm. Cheers.

    I am in the planning stages of building something like this and your video gives me a great starting point. I want something that can be redirected with mirrors for a single beam to cover a 1000ft² area. I am trying to figure out a way to wire it in to a relay that allows a timer to be triggered for the siren inside the house. Internet connectivity would be another goal, as i would like to recieve notifications of breach via text or pop up on a mobile device. Sounds like a lot but, i know its possible with some determination. Thanks for the ideas.

    Great design, perfectly annoying to pesky burglars. Could you tell me how to get the schematic for this project? The You Tube I watched did not have access to sub titles or captions. You mentioned at the end of the video that the diagram was "in the description below", but I wasn't able to view it. Thanks, keep these videos coming.

      Hi. Thanks for your comment!
      The diagram is linked in the description via a Google drive link which you should see.
      Regards,

    I made it and it works awesome thanks
    But I have a doubt if I want to increase its accuracy means I want to make it more sensible if insect fly through it then also it should work what shall I do?

    Hello, May I ask how does each components like 555 timer, op-amp transistor works or functions in the circuit?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому +1

      Hi there. I cannot explain that simply through text. However, there are plenty of videos online you should check out demonstrating the operation of these type of ICs. Cheers.

    Is it possible to instead of a buzzer, connect it to an rpi that runs a command on my phone or computer?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому +1

      Yes, with the given signal after being triggered, it's possible.

    Great! I wont to make something like this on 20 meters distance to secure my motorcycle. Is this passible with that distance?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  5 місяців тому +1

      With precise adjustments using bolts to secure the modules, yes, I believe it's possible. The red dot also widens by quite a bit at that distance, it should hit the sensor 👍🏻

    Hi, may I know how do you charge those Li-ion batteries?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому

      Hi, using one of these charging boards: amzn.to/3XHVmJB

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому

      If it's a 2S pack like in the video, then I advise you use one of these BMS chargers with a 3-wire cable: amzn.to/3PO1Ww4

    Can anyone explain why does he use ICs where we just need transistor LDR and buzzer

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  5 місяців тому

      With the use of ICs, you have more accurate detection, sensitivity control between the threshold values, and the oscillating effect to make the buzzer beep on repeat.

    how long does will the whole system last if left on? all night, a few hours, several minutes?
    and how hard would it be to put integrate a solar charging system?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому

      Hi there. The system lasts around 2-3 days for me. A solar system could be ideal for outdoor securing applications or you could instead make the two ends USB powered and plugged in somewhere. Cheers.

    Is it possible to swap the buzzer for a Servo?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Рік тому

      Yes however, it would get more complex. You'd either need an extended circuitry to drive the servo or just a simple Arduino board that takes the pulsating signal and gives an output to move the servo so many degrees. The second option may suit best.

    Bro I tried many times to look at the video and understand connections but I couldn't would you please upload any other file not like which in the description because there are many things different than video

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  8 місяців тому

      The diagram is accurate to what I showed in the video. Check every connection with your multimeter. Your hardware and components may also differ from mine. There are many factors.
      All I can suggest is to check your connections.

    Why did you use two NE555 Chips

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  10 місяців тому

      One for the main circuit tripping and the other for making the repetitive beep that's outputted by the buzzer

  • @abdelazizknani5042
    @abdelazizknani5042 Місяць тому

    Why didn't you use an ldr sensor instead of creating it ?
    It is an LDR sensor, isn't it?

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  Місяць тому +1

      It is an LDR sensor, yes. I didn't make the sensor, I made the circuit that uses one.

    It would bê Nice to be self resetting after a given alarm time like 2 minutes.

    • @MaxImagination
      @MaxImagination  2 роки тому

      Yes, I actually hadn't thought of it at that time. It could even be done with another NE555 timer IC.
