Hi Everyone
First time poster, just did a search for an electronics forum, and found this one.
I am looking to build two or three small mortised reels.
I need for them to be compact, VERY QUIET, and self contained. Activated with some kind of remote.
A Little more information that may help...
What will they be pulling? - A cotton thread, perhaps 4 - 5 meters, with a small weight on the end, a kilo tops.
Power source? - Battery operated preferable
Each one needs to be independent. so a different remote for each, or a multi remote with different buttons? 9is the even a thing? Would I have to make that too???
I would like each to have an on/off switch, for when not in use, and perhaps an LED signal, when they are on, which goes off after a few seconds, and then a visual signal when activated.
I want for them to run when activated for only three to four seconds, then automatically go off, and for there to be a delay up to 10 - 15 seconds when activated, before they do anything...
Does all of that make sense? I know that its pretty specific. I can't think of anything else that may be relevant.
So...
Can I make this myself?
If so, where do i start and what do i need?
Thanks in advance.
