About Me


Hey folks,
             I'm Abhinav Rajeev, currently pursuing undergraduate from NSS College of Engineering Palakkad, Kerala. I'm actually from Muvattupuzha (a city in Ernakulam district). 
            As the blog says I'm an electronic hobbyist. I try to explore the heart of things to find out what's going on inside that with at most care and patience. My mom calls this procedure as destruction! :D (yeah its true! if I can't open it I just pry with a hammer to examine the postmortem). As far as the bills are concerned, from the very beginning of my birth to till date destruction, it would have been 4 to 5 lakh rupees for my father.
            I'm also fond of renewable energy mainly the solar, li-ion batteries, recovering of these batteries, home automation, Tesla electric cars. My craziness are over two things- electronics and Royal Enfield.
            That's all of me. We'll get to know in the future

DiY- Mosquito Bat Repair

Hi, This one is a rather simple Do it Yourself project. Recently, I found one of the dead mosquito bats in my room. The funny part being, there are a few of them here. One can certainly find that this piece of High Voltage equipment is one of those Chinese brains, in a sense that they use lower quality batteries, hence a much lower price of around ₹150 to ₹200. This itself was the obvious reason why I could find a bunch of them in my house.                   The problem, as you might have guessed, is the dead battery in the bat after a month or twice of use.  As I was having my semester exams, I decided to repair the bat. :) The first thing I did was to open up the bat and undoing all the screws and collecting them aside. After which, on a close examination, I found that the battery used was of such cheap quality. I used my beloved multimeter and checked the voltage of the battery which showcased a voltage of 4.1v. I assum...

Passive Infrared Sensor

A bit delayed post. :D Apologies...               Recently I received a few boards and accessories which was ordered previously through Ali Express. Don't mind if I say that AliExpress is one of the best marketing services for small electronics components. So, one among the boards was a PIR Relay Module which costs around ₹180 for me. In my house, I and my brother are the laziest and we don't use to turn off the lights once we leave the room. I wished I could install the board to the existing switch so as to make the lights automatic.                   Coming to the working principle of PIR Sensor, it usually consists of two special materials (Pyroelectric) which are sensitive to Infrared waves. When no change or motion occurs both the materials since the same amount of IR and stays idle. But as soon as there is a motion of a human or any changes which produces a difference in heat, the two material s...

Alternating Current v/s Direct Current

A rather simple topic! WHAT?        There are mainly two types of electricity in this world, namely Alternating Current (AC) & Direct Current (DC). But before that what is current? In theory, it's just a flow of electron, but in a practical scenario I've seen anything like that, what I felt is a torturing heat, and that's because of a higher CURRENT!. The supply we get in our house, industry, college almost everywhere is Alternating Current. Its produced from hydroelectric generators here, mainly. 'AC' man is seen as something like this when plotted in a graph. Mr. Alternating Current          Once again Mr. Faraday came into our context. According to his law  of electromagnetism predicts how a magnetic field will interact with an electric circuit to produce an electromotive force ( EMF). Consider a magnet with its south and north poles separated in space and when a coil rotates in between this poles...
