    Delay "off" Timer

    Cool. Had to modify my search to find it. Because I'm only going 1-10 minutes, I can eliminate C2 correct? Shouldn't pin 5 have a .01uF cap as well? Than you again for your help.

    Is this more like what you're talking about?

    Delay "off" Timer

    Thank you Chris, that's the info I was looking for. As I mentioned I've found several 1-10 minute timers utilizing the 555. This particular one came form a book "50 circuits with the 555". I did find a different circuit with a 1M variable resister and a 220uF cap, but I keep thinking that large...

    Delay "off" Timer

    I enjoy building stupid things for no good reason, when I have time. Which doesn't happen very often. But its always fun to learn and experiment anyway. I have found several schematics that run in excess of 10 minutes, up to several hours. But, they are off before they turn on, and are operating...

    Delay "off" Timer

    And that's why I'm here. I had found somewhere that stated connecting pin 3 to pin 7 did. That's why I check rather than be sorry later. Thank you CDrive. It wont run that long because of capacitor decay I'm guessing?

    Delay "off" Timer

    Because I'm nuts and enjoy headaches. :) What do you think of this circuit? How about if I ran pin 7 to pin 3? that should help it run more efficiently deliver more power. But would the circuit still work? And added a BD679 transistor from output in-between pins 3/7 to the relay?

    Delay "off" Timer

    So, I've been searching this site (and the rest of google) for a couple days, and haven't really found anything that meets what I'm looking for. I'm a soldering tech and am good with electronics, but I don't know enough about whats out there to build the circuit diagram and parts list myself. So...
