Dischargers

[SparkyT3]

Does any one have a simple design to build a discharger? I know that you can us 5165 Auto bulbs X10 to pull the load, but I need to build or find the device that will cut off the voltage. Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks Guys!!

You can buy one from racers edge. I know there something in electrical. Cuz if a fuze cuts off when 2 much electrical current... there has to be something that cuts off with little.

I chhecked those site that is exactly what I am looking for! Thanks. I think that I may combine the two and go from there. The cut off is really easy to build and the bulbs look like a breeze to solder together. I will tell ya how it turns out.

Any other suggestions are welcome!!!

teach, I made one of that discharger couples weeks ago, the only thing would not work was the auto cut-off. I have done exactly as they described. But the coil from my relay just didn't pick up the contactor with rc battery(7.2V) of voltage. So I just made the one without the auto cut-out.
#1157 bulbs from sears only cost you two for $1.99.
