4 Channel Basic Relay Driver

4 channel relay board. Use relay 11.001. Use screw terminals for all connections. Have an LED indicator for each signal. Have 5V supply for relay coils. Circuit can be as bare-bones as possible (IE no protection (fuses), and no filtering). HOWEVER please include diodes to protect the MOSFETS.

Terminal Arduino

A simple Arduino clone with terminal block breakouts. Center it around the ATMEGA328-PU (UPL 9.002). Include a 5V power supply, and one indicator LED (with disconnecting jumper). Add reset button and ICSP headers. Use internal resonator. FTDI not necessary - but future version it might be handy

MIG Welder

We need a trigger, gas, and wire feed circuit for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z35BYaCRRhM The gun tip appears to be live, so no contactor is used inside the gun. This makes it a very simple but robust design.

Small Electric Fence Charger

Solar/battery powered, large enough for a *small* fence i.e. 50ft, not 10000 like most chargers. These would be really useful e.g. when keeping animals away from a single fruit tree. Commercial chargers are just too big/expensive for these usages which I think would be very frequent if the charger were available.

Desktop Audio Mixer

A device that mixes two or more analog audio signals into one analog signal, Does so via multiple inputs with dimmer switches for individual volume control. It should be Audiophile/Studio Quality Sound (I.E Low Noise). Can be either banalced or unbalanced. Is a part of this OSE construction set: http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/Open_Source_Audio_Capture_%2B_Editing_%2B_Reproduction_Construction_Set On this page: http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/Open_Source_Desktop_Audio_Mixer

240VAC to 24VDC Charger

Smart charger that goes from 240 AC to 24V DC lead acid batteries. The equivalent commercial counterpart is https://www.ebay.com/itm/24V-5A-Jazzy-Power-Chair-XLR-Mobility-Smart-Charger/331199313251. This is currently used as a backup charger for the Seed Eco-Home as we test the overall PV system.
