Garden Sentry 12V - Part 8B
As posted pity I didn't have this setup in the front yard for this morning to ambush (scare & wet) White Legs. Anyway in the workshop this morning before it gets too hot to do some more refinements the main one being a system test switch.
It turns out that it's a PIA to setup the motion sprinkler every time it'd going to be used. The sensor LUX has to be turned towards DAY so I can trigger the system to adjust water pressure after which the LUX control has to be turned back towards NIGHT. If I don't get it right I get sprayed going out to put the lock on the front gates lol.
Went through some of my stuff and found a bag of SPDT Centre Off Rocker Switches.Monday, February 13, 2023
