🛠️ What You’ll Learn
✔ The theory behind Darlington transistor amplification
✔ How a non-contact voltage tester works
✔ All parts you need (marker, transistors, resistor, LED, antenna wire)
✔ Step-by-step build from start to finish
✔ Live testing and final demo
📋 Parts Needed
💡 Empty whiteboard marker (used)
🔹 3 × C1815 NPN transistors (or equivalent)
🔹 1 × 2 kΩ resistor
🔹 1 × red LED
🔹 ~8–10 inches (20–25 cm) copper wire antenna
(Get the full list + instructions on the blog!)
📌 Safety First
This is a non-contact tester — you won’t touch live wires. Always work safely around AC mains.
