The metal plate, no problem. The transformer, I have a couple to try. That vibrating switch, which I hardly glanced at before, is something else again.
Seemed simple at first glance. I'm an old electrician, not an electronics whiz. The best thing I could think of was a rotating magnet and a reed switch. Not very practical.
I have a ne555 relay, but it stays on too long to be useful.
Any suggestions appreciated.
