That was what I thought. https://plus.google.com/photos/108164504656404380542/albums/5930254306221907233 Has twice been the result. The problem comes when the relay attempts to open for whatever reason while the caps are not fully discharged. (such as a momentary power glitch) However, there is a similar problem using a solid-state solution, as exactly the same thing will happen if the FET is latched on. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
