This is one of the popular EFY circuit. i build this one very easily.
The circuit consists of very less components and simple in design.
Connect this circuit to any of your home appliances
(lamp, fan, radio, etc) to make the appliance turn on/off from a TV, VCD
or DVD remote control. The circuit cane activated from up to 10 metres.
The 38kHz infrared (IR) rays generated by the remote control are
received by IR receiver module TSOP1738 of the circuit. Pin 1 of
TSOP1738 is connected to ground, pin 2 is connected to the power supply
through resistor R5 and the output is taken from pin 3. The output
signal is amplified by transistor T1 (BC558).
The amplified signal is fed to clock pin 14 of decade counter IC CD4017 (IC1). Pin 8 of IC1 is grounded, pin 16 is connected to Vcc and pin 3 is connected to LED1 (red), which glows to indicate that the appliance is ‘off.’ The output of IC1 is taken from its pin 2. LED2 (green) connected to pin 2 is used to indicate the ‘on’ state of the appliance. Transistor T2 (BC548) connected to pin 2 of IC1 drives relay RL1. Diode 1N4007 (D1) acts as a freewheeling diode. The appliance to be controlled is connected between the pole of the relay and neutral terminal of mains. It gets connected to live terminal of AC mains via normally opened (N/O) contact when the relay energises. you can use any NPN transistor inplace of BC548. You can also use SL100 or any NPN transistor lying around you.

The delay depends on the C1 capacitor. Using higher value
capacitor will create more delay and using less value capacitor will
switch the circuit more than 2 times when you press a remote. Analyse
the circuit by placing the 10uf capacitor in place of C1 (100uf).
personally I faced many problems using relay for the first time. A detailed explanation regarding relays can be found here..
If you face any problems soldering this circuit, post here.
This is simple than the previous version of this type of this circuit.
