DIY Switchable Smartag

[donCityZ]

After using the Battery-free smartag that I DIY'ed before, I find it kinda
annoying and difficult especially if suddenly need to use the Smartag.

So, now I remove the wire and DIY a Switchable smartag that still use a battery. however, the battery will consume 0mA when it is switched off, therefore make it last longer.

Check it out!:

Don, Suggestion!
Why not use a batt free (using car's batt of course) with switch??
that way, u can off it when you're not using and won't bug you when the 9V batt is khong.

IC....
That's great!
Another suggestion, make it rechargeable.... like handphone style
Join your two designs and put a Cheap rechargeable 9V (7.2V)
the circuitry you can find it in google

that way you can have both worlds!
This is "continuous improvement of desgin"
my 2 cents...
