Hi all,
I have a circuit that sends out a 12V pulse from a 40106 inverter. I would like this pulse to ring a mechanical bell. I believe the bell draws too much current to plug directly into the 40106 (and it's rated at 3-6V DC) so I was wondering if the attached circuit would work. If so, I'm not sure how to calculate the value of R1. Many thanks!
