Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi,

Could you please recommend a speaker or buzzer I could buy to connect to Maximite for sound?

I know people used difference ones ripped out from laptops, headphones etc. Does anybody know something I could buy? a part number, for example.

Thanks

Alexander

Any standard Amplified PC speaker should work, however many these days are USB powered so you will need to either use a USB port or one of those cheap USB `wall warts' to power them..

They should cost around the $15 mark a set (240V jobbies) or $10 (USB powered Jobbies)

regards,

Sorry, I put the question wrong way. I'm up a micro speaker with I can mount inside the Maximite case and connect to the audio output directly.

I hoped that somebody has already found a good high enough input impedance speaker or buzzer which can be connected directly, without a transistor or something, and also providing a good enough quality sound.

Alexander,

Try audio transducer AB3440 from Jaycar.

There are some pictures of mine fitted in this thread

There is also some info in regards connecting it further in that thread.

Cheers,
Anthony.
