I want to build a wireless remote trap trigger that is cell phone activated. Like they do wireless hog trapping with.
I can build the trap many different ways. Something pull triggered would probably be best.
The ones online are like 500/1000.00 and I dont want to spend that for this random test and project. So figured I would ask here to see if anyone could help and had ideas.
SO something like this.
Cell phone activated relay like this???

or this:

Powered by a 12volt battery with solar trickle charger.
Then the pin would need to be pulled by a actuator or quick moving solenoid. I have seen guys use car door actuators, but I would like something with a little more power as the weight the pin will be under will be pretty decent.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ANYONE got any ideas or want to help with this project?

When relay fires it cuts power and magnet drops?

Plenty of wrecked cell drones out there for not much money with movable components. Don’t know if you can put a higher powered servo on the receiver but perhaps it would work?
There are some VERY powerful servo’s available.

Then whatever remotely release the pin from the other side.
That way you don't need a release to move the pin under wieght,you need a release to let the pin go that is already under a huge amount of spring tension.
But I really don't know. :dunno: :dunno:
Just thinking about it with a brain fart in my head and not seeing it ,that's all I can come up with.
You would have to have it spring loaded enough that the pin will move under whatever weight your putting on it.
Basically at that point your just release it ,it might take a ratchet strap or come along or something like that to reset.

I thought about a remote control but really would like a cell phone one so I can move it to different ranches. I could build it that way but I would be limited to just around the house kinda deal.

Some solid thoughts. I will look into for sure.

Cell phone would have better range for sure. Plus, the 'old school' R/C is all pretty much all line of sight. If you need a servo or two to play with I could spiff you some, but the ones I have may not be strong enough for what you are looking to do.

Travel would only need to be 1/4-1/2” to deploy

Edit: Now I wanna know, what specifically are you targeting?
Pm me if you want. I've done a little planning on this sort of thing my self for targeting the feral cats on my farm and not the tame ones. That way I can spay or neuter them without having to just kill them. They are excellent mousers.

LDennis YES that is exactly what I am looking to do. Even uses the relay that I posted above!
Now anyone want to wire one or 2 up for me? :chuckle:
I am wanting to try live trapping coyotes with a drop trap. They do not like going into a cage but I think they would be willing to walk under a hanging trap that I can drop on them.

AP thank you!!! that is a great idea but seems to me I read on this site about a member getting bit by a possum? :chuckle: So I don't need that problem so I think I will go another route :chuckle:

Are you going to spay and neuter them to keep them around, I hear they make good catters. :chuckle:
