Hi there, hope someone can help.
Ok firstly i am trying to build a water spray system that uses a 12v Solenoid which will be controlled by a PIR module. Here are the parts i have so far;
12v Solenoid: DC 12V 1/2″ Magnetic Electric Solenoid Valve for Water Air Normally Closed | eBay
PIR Module: PIR IR Pyroelectric Infrared Module Adjust Relay Output Human Body Sensor 12V XD | eBay
Rectifier Diode: 4 off 6A6 Rectifier Diode 6A 6AMP 600V RoHS | eBay
+Various housing parts and connections for the hose pipe
It is to keep next door neighbours cat from cr@pping on the driveway. So when the module detects motion it will open the solenoid and water will shoot out.
I have basically been following a guide on YT, but on the video he is using a 12v power adapter plug, whereas I want to use rechargeable lithium batteries.
Any advice on the batteries? Which ones i should use, and also the wiring of the battery pack?
Many thanks
