"Self -made smart home" is an idea game!I tried to DIY for "security systems" and "empty toilet display" with familiar materials

The easiest thing to do is the security system using a smart LED light.This is a story I heard from the police, but the first thing that the burglar aims is a house without a car that is usually parked.It is said that it is a house with no electricity at night.Both pretend to take a walk, etc., and you can see that you are away just by looking at it, so it seems to be a good judgment for the burglar.

It is this smart house security that takes advantage of it.Even if you have a house, if you put an LED light at a fixed time, it will be as if there are people.

Building such a system for a moment!Replace the light bulb of the stand light with a smart LED light and always turn on the power switch.However, recently, light bulb -type stand lights have not been sold, so it might be the cheapest and fastest to buy a bulb socket and electric wires at a home improvement center.

What you need to make your own is the following parts.

レセプタクル(E26)1個500円ぐらい
電線(7Aか12A)数m500円ぐらい
コンセント1個300円ぐらい
部品はこれだけ。あとは取り付ける板の切れっ端(かまぼこ板ぐらい)などもあると便利

Receptacle is simply a light bulb socket.If you look for it by online shopping, the difficult term should be hit.There are plastic and pottery, but LED bulbs are OK with plastic because they do not have so much heat.However, the size is to choose E26.This is a normal bulb socket, meaning 26 mm in diameter with a screw -in type (Edison type).Please note that there are also E17 smaller than light bulbs, such as downlights.

電線は、7A(アンペア)か12Aまでのものを必要な長さだけ確保する。切り売りで買うと7Aという表記ではなく、太さの0.75mm2、12Aの1.25mm2と書かれている場合がある。

By the way, the actual way of making is like this.First, open the receptacle lid so that you can see the terminal connected to the wire.

Next, peel the wire skin about 2 cm, twist it, and wrap it around the screw of the receptacle.The point at this time is to wrap a wire clockwise against the screw and pass the tip of the electric wire under the side with the coating.This is because when the screw is tightened, it is turned right (clockwise), so when the screw is tightened, the wire is firmly pressed on the terminal.

Note that if the wire is wrapped counterclockwise, if the screws are tightened, the wires will fall apart and cause poor contact or shorts.In addition, the strength of tightening the screw is OK enough to pull the wire lightly and not.If you tighten too much screws, there is a risk that the wire will be torn.

By the way, I have a lot of tools that can be enjoyed and made, so I was a little sloppy.

Regardless of the pressing, if the two wires in two are connected to both the receptacle terminals, the construction of the socket is over.

ソケット側はできあがり! あとはコンセントをつけるだけ

On the other side of the electric wire, the outlet is screwed as well as the receptukuru.

After that, the smart LED light is screwed into the receptacle and the lights light up if the outlet is inserted.

After that, use the schedule function to turn the lights on the same time every day.If you want to look more realistic, you can darken the brightness of the LED light when you sleep.

In addition, if you make a schedule of the power supply with a smart plug using a cheap radio with an outlet type, you can also disguise it as if there are people and enjoying radio and TV.

The smart LED light and the smart plug can be specified in one minute on and OFF, and the time can be changed according to the day of the week.
