Hello. I am wanting to do something similar to this:
**broken link removed**
Found a 6v DC battery-powered, AC optional PIR motion sensor light. The only settings are Off, Auto, and On. In Auto mode, the light stays on for 30 seconds. You can guess what the other two modes do.
What I need is a timer circuit that can be triggered by the output that powers the light. The timer would then trigger a relay to switch on a higher-powered DC circuit for a set amount of time. I want the timer to be adjustable from 1 to about 30 seconds max. The PIR's default timer would guarantee me at least a 30-second wait time before triggering again.
I am planning to wire the relay to screw terminals so I can use it for triggering different devices.
The reference provided by the link above no longer exists, although they do have **broken link removed**
Any leads to schematics on building something like this? I've Googled all day and the search here doesn't like "555". Thanks
