Glade Sense & Spray Air Freshener, Motion Activated Automatic Odour Eliminator for Home, Clean Linen, Starter Kit with Holder & 18 ml Refill

Product Information

The phototransistor only has two pins, one is anode and one is cathode – if you use a voltmeter or follow the traces, you should be able to work it out fairly easily which one is which. It may not be reproduced in any way whatsoever without Ocado Limited's prior consent, nor without due acknowledgement. Unfortunately, there’s not much in there that will give hobbyists something to salvage, but it was interesting to see how simple it is given the fact it uses a dosed canister (thus, the timing of the nozzle up/down is not as important) and the use of limit stops to limit the travel (thus, no positional feedback is required). It might have a fixed threshold detection, as under artificial lighting, it doesn’t reliably trigger, although it would be possible to make it more sophisticated (e.

I was sent this to review but I wouldn't purchase it again for our home, I think if you have it in a small space it may work well but the smell seems to get lost in our house so unless you're standing right near it the smell is very faint. The top of it contains a very small tapered hole, no doubt a nozzle that helps to further atomize the spray from the refill.It seems the internal section of the unit is marked much the same as the outside, with FCC and CE approval markings. Contains: 3-p-cumenyl-2-methylpropionaldehyde; geraniol; 7-hydroxycitronellal; 1-(2,6,6-trimethyl-3-cyclohexen-1-yl)-2-buten-1-one; d-limonene; geranyl acetate. The unit itself has the front panel push button for an immediate spray (termed boost), with a translucent white plastic for the LED to shine through, and a hole for the sensor. But does the current between collector and emitter also fluctuate, or does it suddenly come on at a set level when a threshold is reached in the amount of base current? By selecting the appropriate model and utilizing it effectively, one can ensure a pleasant indoor environment with minimal effort.

If the connection is correct you should see 10k ohms between the end of R10 closest to the drilled hole R and the base of the pre-amp transistor. Stopping here, you end up with a can of air freshener, 3 batteries, 2 slide and 1 push button switches, a cool aerosol valve, a medium power PNP transistor, a two wire connector with leads, and a LED. However, If you want to go a bit farther, you can access the amplified analog sensor output as well as the digital signal, and have an externally accessible relay driver, and LED. I had envisioned the Sense and Spray as something that would squirt spray every time it sensed you moving. Go into lock-out mode for a given amount of time and blink LED slowly to indicate this while looking for a push-button signal – if there is, then go to 3.

In the picture below you can see that all the holes are drilled and all the trace cuts have been made. There are 4 security screws holding the case together; 2 that can be seen from the back of the case and 2 inside the battery compartment.

With an improved air freshener option, it can not only contain a small amount of bacteria, and infections, but also have a moisture-wicking ability.

The device itself is a transistor, which means the collector current is the base current multiplied by a gain factor which is dependent on the device itself. If you look at the removed switch's pads you can see that 6 have been selected and the outer 4 of the six enlarged.I grabbed one off the shelf today for the same reason, to see if there were a couple parts to play with with the arduino, then found your article. You now have access to the digitized sensor output at the outer pin of the white connector and a smaller module. PLACEMENT: For best results, place unit upright on a flat surface where upward spray will not be obstructed.

Pull the red strip from the battery compartment, position unit upright on a flat surface and the motion sensor does the rest. It literally runs the motor forward for a given time, letting the gearing hit the limit stop, then runs it in reverse for a given time, until it hits the other limit stop. To gain the access to the medium power transistor's pre-amp we need to bypass the capacitor marked C15 on the PCB. do you think if there a way to re-program or hack this device so it does not do the automatic spraying which it does every 30 minutes which is too much waste of scent and makes too heavy to bread the environment.There is an electrolytic capacitor, a ceramic capacitor, a micro-switch, an LED, what appears to be a phototransistor and a black plastic shroud (to limit the interference from the LED and limit the viewing angle). Not sure I like the smell, its really strong, and its quite annoying to get a full burst of spray when you walk past. Although this was just fine Ill always prefer a reed diffuser that keeps a room smelling lovely continuously. With an attractive design that blends into your home decor, you can add fragrance with any of your favourite Glade Sense and Spray refills, including Clean Linen. Ideal for various settings, from homes to commercial spaces, motion sensor air fresheners offer a convenient solution for odor management and ambiance enhancement.
