6Volt Doorbell Light Circuit
This 6V battery operated doorbell light circuit can be affiliated in alongside with any absolute AC230V doorbell. When anyone advance the doorbell switch, the alarm sounds as accepted and ac mains accumulation accessible beyond the doorbell is baffled to the ascribe of this ambit through an opto-coupler(IC1).
Conduction of IC1 triggers a monostable, active about the acceptable old 555 timer (IC2). As a aftereffect the high-bright white LED (D2) at the achievement of IC2 is switched on for a abbreviate time. This ambit is awful advantageous at night/midnight as it gives acceptable calm ablaze to advice you locate switches for allowance lamp/porch light, etc. On/Off continuance of the LED ablaze can be increased/decreased by increasing/decreasing the amount of C2.
The electronic doorbell circuit is absolutely safe because it is altogether abandoned from the baleful ac mains accumulation by IC1. However, accumulate to abstain adventitious contacts with the foreground end of the circuit, which is anon affiliated to the ac supply. Use of a acceptable and acceptable ABS asylum is recommended for this doorbell ablaze unit.

A Doorbell for the Deaf
This schema provides a delayed visual indication when a door bell switch is pressed. In addition, a DPDT switch can be moved from within the house which will light a lamp in the door bell switch. The lamp can illuminate the words "Please Wait" for anyone with walking difficulties.
A Doorbell for the Deaf Circuit Diagram :
Notes :
The schema uses standard 2 wire doorbell cable or loudspeaker wire. In parallel with the doorbell switch, S1, is a 1N4001 diode and a 12 volt 60mA bulb. The bulb is optional, it may be useful for anyone who is slow to answer the door, all you need to do is flick a switch inside the house, and the bulb will illuminate a label saying Please Wait inside the doorbell switch or close to it. The double pole double throw switch sends the doorbell supply to the lamp, the 22 ohm resistor is there to reduce current flow, should the doorbell switch, S1 be pressed while the lamp is on. The resistor needs to be rated 10 watts, the 0.5 Amp fuse protects against short diagram.
When S2 is in the up position (shown as brown contacts), this will illuminate the remote doorbell lamp. When down, (blue contacts) this is the normal position and will illuminate the lamp inside the house. Switch S1 will then charge the 47u capacitor and operate the transistor which lights the lamp. As a door bell switch is only pressed momentarily, then the charge on the capacitor decays slowly, resulting in the lamp being left on for several seconds. If a longer period is needed then the capacitor may be increased in value.
