It'shi I4,
OK, so what is the steady state power consumption of the project when it is installed and running.?
Also the power requirement the when in alarm state.?

I just added last updated circuit with the help of well known member SGHIOTOhi I4,

You still need to find out how much current the phone uses to complete the setup. Can you get that data?

Just correct me when I says wrongYou still need to find out how much current the phone uses to complete the setup. Can you get that data?
hi I4,
Interesting circuit but have calculated the power requirements in operational standby and when in alarm state.?

Battery have 18000mAh capacity,hi I4,

Can you remove the battery in the phone and connect to 5 volts and measure the current directly?I have a doubt in this circuit
Currently I have no facility but after some hours I will test it by a Multimeter and will update it , please keep in touch , I will come back at evening time. . .Three 6000ma batteries in series is still 6000ma but at 9.6 volts nominal. A 6000 ma 5 volt supply will probably power that phone for days. But I would still like to know the actual current the phone requires to finalize some component values.
The output current from mobile charger shows 5v 550 mAhCurrently I have no facility but after some hours I will test it by a Multimeter and will update it , please keep in touch , I will come back at evening time. . .
YES, I READ YOUR WORDS TWICE.@Idea4device I am surprised no one has revisited the impracticality of your "sensor". The idea of using a breaking wire is extremely impractical. The mechanics of ensuring it will behave as you expect, the cost of resetting it (both in time and materials), and the unknown but very suspect reliability make it a very poor choice without some testing to prove its efficacy.
My advice, from a long career of executing projects is to reconsider this part before making all the effort on the rest. While I would abandon it and look for a different solution, if you really feel it is a good idea, I would strongly suggest you build a test device that can prove out the method. This can be as simple as running the loop and seeing it if gets broken in the right circumstances and doesn't generate false alarms. It doesn't even require the circuit, a multimeter resistance check should be sufficient.
Sometimes we make the mistake of defining a problem in terms of a proposed solution. That is, we latch on to a possible solution and pursue it without enough thought and testing, and the original problem becomes secondary to the new one—the imagined solution.
I sincerely believe you need to put more thought into this sensor. My experience and knowledge tells me it has a poor chance of solving your problem.
Good luck.
That doesn't tell me how much current the phone draws. The make and model # of the phone you will be using might help otherwise you will have to measure the current directly with a multimeter.The output current from charger to phone is 550mAh
See device is floating , and only the insulated tiny copper loop is just connected with the fishing line to be break just after dragging by the fish. AllBy "sensor" I was referring to the wire loop. It is fraught with shortcomings and that's why I encouraged you to test it. Given the level of complexity and budget you seem to be working with I would suggest you look for a solution that is above the water rather than in it. Being underwater adds many potential problems. Sensing the fist from the line that is not submerged makes much more sense to me.
I don't believe the problem of sensing the fish is solved. Without a good solution to this, the rest of the project is purely speculative. I believe you should test and perfect the "fish sensor", then add to the other subsystems to the project.
Good luck with this.
I am not sure I am communicating clearly. Why not use a switch located at "the device" to which the line is connected? You could arrange for whatever force you want to trigger it. The wire breaking is, frankly, a bizarre solution that seems to have no advantages and many disadvantages.See device is floating , and only the insulated tiny copper loop is just connected with the fishing line to be break just after dragging by the fish.

Yes this phone and it's current input is same as per it's company standard 550mAhThat doesn't tell me how much current the phone draws. The make and model # of the phone you will be using might help otherwise you will have to measure the current directly with a multimeter.
The phone doesn't draw 550 ma otherwise the battery would be dead in a couple of hours.Yes this phone and it's current input is same as per it's company standard 550mAh
If it helps, more than a loop , I will consider it definitely, but can you please explain how it work when a switch in use near fishing line , which type of switch?I am not sure I am communicating clearly.

I don't think I can help you, I'm sorry. I hope you come to a good solution.
