PET-SHOOO! Automated cat or dog deterrent

thingiverse

If you have a cat you know exactly why you need one, there are certain places you don't want your pet to be there. DISCLAIMER and WARNING: Use this device at your own risk, if you damage anything in your house or injure your Pet using it, I won't take any responsibility for it. Choose your air can carefully, don't use one with toxic, paint, or any solvent. The idea of an air duster can is not new, but those products are expensive or you can't find them in your country. So I came up with this one, I made the electronics part as simple as possible, you don't need to know much about electronics, just follow my wiring diagram. The air can used is from DATA-FLASH and widely available in the EU, from stores like Conrad and Amazon, see below at the end for more information about the air can. A very short video to show how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5LFHBRgv6s Before you put everything together, test the electronics, dial in the timer before putting it into the enclosure, have patience while dialing in the timer, that's all. Putting the device on air can requires little force, make sure that all supports are removed from the print, especially at the splits around the can. Bottom part is not needed, but it makes the device sturdy when it is placed somewhere. Every time you put 12VDC on the PET-SHOOO! It will take at least 1 minute to IR sensor settles down. Parts list, make sure everything is 12VDC and not 5VDC: Door Lock Actuator for Renault: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Front-Left-Front-Right-Side-Version-2-Pins-7702127213-7701039565-Door-Lock-Actuator-For-Renault-19/32824671360.html (Find out which connector needs to be + to push the rod out.

Here some links from Amazon, same size cans from different companies, copy paste the links, Amazon don't like redirection apparently...: https://www.amazon.de/Druckgasspray-Druckluft-Dataflash-B%C3%BCroger%C3%A4te-Druckluftspray/dp/B0059RRIAE https://www.amazon.de/Data-Flash-DF-1270-Reinigungsspray/dp/B000TK6J0Q https://www.amazon.de/Ednet-63004-Power-Cleaner-400ml/dp/B00JOS8Z24 Printed with Anycubic 4Max, top part needs supports. Don't mind the print quality of the top part in my pictures, I was using a cheap PLA filament for first time (and probably last time too) and I had extrusion problems, I thought it was my hot end but found out that I had to print with this PLA at least 20C higher than they suggested, that's why the lower part of the print had under extrusion.
