First post, please be gentle.
I have an electric kettle that turns off when the water boils, but gives no indication that it has done it's job. I would like to figure out how to wire up a bell that will chime once when the pot is no longer drawing current. I assume my best plan of attack would be an AC relay that would trigger the bell, perhaps using a 555 chip, but beyond that, I'm out of my depth.
Any help would be appreciated,
Justin
