OK, but I have a question I still need answered. Do you want this timer to retrigger every time it sees motion, or stop moving arbitrarily after 5 minutes?

 

Work perfect, thanks. I might need to shorten the time a bit. I will post picts as soon as I get them.

 

OK, cool. What transistor did you go with?

 

IRF 520 and 2N2222
Bill.. Do you have experience with Scope Clocks like this?

Coolness, nope. Looks like something out of the 70's or 80's. Nowdays we'd use a laptop display (along with the laptop). Thinking about building one?

 

Well I built one and it does not work, So I am shipping it back to Germany for repairs.
I just thought Texas would be cheaper on the freight.
Looks like I bit off more than I can Chew.
