    .. original application of the circuit in Figure 1 was to locate coins, but it applies wherever you need to locate metal objects. The circuit uses a beat-frequency technique: Whenever a metal object comes close to the search coil, ...
    .. Figure 1. Beating two frequencies together produces an audible shift in tone when the search coil in this simple metal detector comes near a metal object. The inductance of the search loop and the input capacitance (series ...

  1. .. Parts Considerations: Just about any transistors will work but if you choose to use older, low gain transistors in metal cans just because they are so good looking (like I did), it might be best to try a 4.7 k and 2.2 uF in place of ...
    .. rain detector will give you a heads-up the instant it starts to rain, hopefully giving you time to close windows and ...

  4. .. not touch anything that is ever-so-slightly conductive, not even most glasses and the electronics must be surrounded by a metal package to shield it from stray electric fields. Because the ion chamber is so small, the LED will only light ...
    .. LED lights up, order something else. The circuit is similar to the unbalanced version of the Cheap but Sensitive Radiation Detector above and only requires two darlington transistors, an LED, and one or two resistors along with a ...
