Just thought you might enjoy this…
my other half runs a shop in Southampton, And people are constantly peeing up against the back door which makes everything stink. I put in a CCTV camera but most people seem to ignore it, so I put a water pipe above the door to spray people and attached it to a solenoid valve and a sensor.

a raspberry pee is overkill for this, I would have just used an old ir motion detector (recycled from a security light maybe even leave the light working...). but at least auto flush now works


jamrogers - 14/6/20 at 08:40 PM

I thought of that, but the motion sensor won’t email me video clips for my amusement :-)

Hahaha, brilliant. Any chance you can move the pipe outlet to further away from the door and increase the delay on the timer.. should net you better results I recon. Once people are 'started ' it will take them a bit longer to get away and they will also have to go out through the waterfall.. this is purely hypothetical off course.. Just engineering optimisation.... id'e never condone such actions....

Increase the delay for sure and get a better nozzle so it sprays out more.

Wonderful work.

Very funny, but I would rig the setup to a tank of your collected pee, as that would be VERY FUNNY !


SJ - 15/6/20 at 07:46 AM

Excellent!


nick205 - 15/6/20 at 08:05 AM

Nice work and seems to be moving the people on before they even get started


steve m - 15/6/20 at 09:33 AM

I would also put up some face pics on the wall, name and shame


adithorp - 15/6/20 at 09:33 AM

Slightly more delay required.

Bet delivery driver love though.


MikeR - 15/6/20 at 09:35 AM

Fab - you might want to blur faces in case someone gets upperty.

Only caution is i'm sure some a*rs could will try to claim assault so definately don't use anything other than tap water

Could you share the details - are you using motioneye?


Irony - 15/6/20 at 09:38 AM

Most excellent!!!

A delay would be ideal and the water actually cleans the area!

I was asleep in my van years ago once outside a pub (long story) and a bloke started peeing up the front grill. I waited until he got going and then full beams and twin airhorns at the same time. He literally wet himself, I thought he might try and fill me in but he ran off soaking wet!


David Jenkins - 15/6/20 at 12:19 PM

I would be tempted to use a powerful mist spray - nowhere near damaging, but very wetting.


ianhurley20 - 15/6/20 at 06:10 PM

Brilliant! Much better than any other solution I have seen to the paper hats who think that everywhere is their toilet - should be installed at every site of problems!!!


steve m - 15/6/20 at 06:36 PM

Now, if those down pipes were metal, and a little bit of current was flowing down them, it would be only a small jolt,
but they would wee themselves

Or as in the medieval days, of pouring boiling hot oil down from the turrets, but but very hot pee and pink die, ?

My last one is very boring,

VERY big signs, saying that anyone caught doing something not appropriate is being filmed and will be forward to the police, and every pub/club around the area

Nah forget it, I would go with a delay of 7 seconds, and then a complete sploosh, at least 5 gallons of piss


Deckman001 - 16/6/20 at 04:52 PM

Awesome


Abe - 17/6/20 at 06:46 PM

Haha love it! Perfect tune for it too


jacko - 18/6/20 at 05:30 PM

Is thea a Thomas crapper invention a flushing toilet or your idea .
change the water for diesel and that would spoil there night
