Good day forum!
This morning I had someone bring in a "water depth meter". I works by dropping a wire down the "bore-hole" and when the metal end touches water it makes a beep on the surface (The water closes the circuit).
Now the device broke, and when we opened it, there was a 9V battery, a PNP transistor and a buzzer. One of the transistor legs were broken off. But strange enough we fixed it without the use of a transistor.
My question now is, what was the transistor for?? We were stumped to figure out what it was for, and still don't have a answer. Any input is much appreciated!
