thank you so much, i had a project two years before but failed to get a good result. but now i understand everything and where i failed thanks to your notes

[MrIPiterek]

why does my motor works for a few seconds and then stop and when i switch + and - it works again for a while

[alexyakirevich]

Hi. Thank you for your instructive content and videos. I am a beginner at this with zero programming skills. I am trying to set up a system to monitor garage for water leakage and if there is one to trigger a vacuum cleaner to collect standing water. I wired up an off the shelf sensor (the Watchdog Water Alarm) to trigger the vac through an IoT Relay, as soon as water is present. Now I am trying to add arduino to this to control the system more intelligently. Specifically, a vac needs to run for few seconds longer *after* water has been collected, and the sensor is off to allow water inside the hose to be fully absorbed into the vac instead of leaving back on the floor after the vac shuts off. What is the best way to code this in arduino? Any suggestions would be great. Thank you

so tinkercard exists, i should have known before i bought my arduino smh, it feels great to have it on your hand tho not gonna lie

10:40 how does the pin 9 will gives the speed to mosfet and the mos gives it to the dc motor?

[nizoooo]

nice vid i love your videos thanks for the information! is there any full vids of arduino 101? and can u make some tinker cad projects like not irl

[danmihaescu]

There is no need for a reverse diode to protect the circuite when the motor turns off?

[turtle]

Is a mosfet transistor necessary? Or can other types of transistor be used also? If so which ones?

[planet_whale]

Can we use a sensor instead of the button?
The code should be changed then?
Just for on and off

[lorainejoyplaida]

is it possible to set an amount of water to dispense? like only 2ml

[henrilahteenmaki]

This seems interresting to one of my current projects.
I do have a question.
Is it easy to add another pump to run at the same time with one button press?
I would like to add liquid to a container and remove the same amount of liquid at the same time from the same container.

Hi! Thanks a lot for the video. Which NMOS model did you employed to drive the 6V peristatic pump? thanks

[patycamara]

Hi! Will it be okay to use a 2N2222A or a 2N4401 transistor? I couldn´t find the NMOS :(

[kirameki]

what about a spray type pump? is it possible?

[PixelGaming]

Hey what mosfet should i buy so that i can use an arduino uno to power a motor rated 6v and has more than 1amp current

[itxrawan]

Hi! great video I just wanted to ask if a relay module could replace both the button and the transistor and if no what will the connection be like between the transistor and the relay

[omarph]

Im using a temp sensor, soil humidity sensor and a screen
Using PN 2222A transistor

Pin(1) source
Pin(2) base
Pin(3) drain
I added 1k ohm resistor for the base pin for the transistor

For the pump im using external source
When my pump works my temp sensor and screen stops working even when the pump turn off they dont work back

But the soil sensor is still working fine

What could be the problem

[lst]

Is there anyway to power both the arduino and the 12v pump using only a 12v 1a adapter

[Jcffdeay]

Great tutorial, may I know where can I get the code of this tutorial?

[josephdaquila]

Does the pump you select have to be specifically designed to be controlled with PWM?
