Good Day/Evening,
My bike came with a sad little 2.5v piezo buzzer for a horn, not loud and not useful for alerting cross traffic. Most cyclists here ride with police whistles as the local drivers are very distracted. I like the electric railway horn method better.
I acquired a nice 12v 130db horn but I'm not sure which parts to use to power it. Putting out 12v is not the problem, I don't know if I should use a mosfet or Solid State Relay or which type to use.
The horn button activates a 2.5v circuit, I'm handy enough with electricity to make the circuit to be switched by that but I'm just not educated on how to determine which parts to use for the switching.
help?
