5 beginners projects that work in the first attempt

Just started electronics ? And you don’t know any engineering behind your projects and you are afraid of failure ? Then, this article can help you get started in electronics.

Usually, success in initial projects plays important role in electronics amateurs and engineering students’ career. Many students quit electronics because they fail in their first, second projects. After few failures, student keep a misconception that electronic projects working now might not work later. Thus, I recommend beginners to start with those projects which will work in their first attempt and give inspiration from your own work.

All the recommended projects have been tested by several students and most of them succeed in their first attempt. Before you proceed, you should know how to use a breadboard. If you don’t know, get one and work on it. Here are the links for learning how to use a breadboard:

The 5 projects for beginners are given below:

a. An automatic dark sensor.

Two years ago, I had published a video on youtube that shows all the steps required for making a dark sensor. I am sure that the video will help you and it should work in your first attempt.

After you build this project on a breadboard, you can try building it on a circuit board. The following kit has a dark sensor, you can solder it and see how it works. Check out our 4 in 1 DIY kit for beginners.
