Dear all,
I have designed a battery(Lithium-Ion,7.2 V,5.2 amp/Hr) operated instrument.Instrument when switched on takes 0.5 amp of current.
I have connected a reed switch (RI- 25C,coto technology) having switching current capacity of 1 amp and continuous carry current of 3 amp in series to battery.
Reed switch closes when magnet is brought near to it and opens when it is taken away.
Problem is when i interface the reed switch with the battery and bring the magnet neat to it ,it closes and the instrument is powered,but when i bring the magnet away from the reed switch it still remains closed only untill and unless it is shook to open.
Please help me out.
Thanks and Regards
