Most relays I've ever seen have the contact ratings stamped right on them. A 1 amp rating @ at least 110v is probably more than enough for several fans (figuring 10 watts per fan, that would be 110 mils each. 1 amp contacts would handle 9 of 'em no sweat. Of course don't worry if the contacts ratings are higher - that's just icing on the cake :-) Ken -- President and CTO - Arcom Communications Makers of state-of-the-art repeater controllers and accessories. http://www.ah6le.net/arcom/index.html AH6LE/R - IRLP Node 3000 http://www.irlp.net Yahoo!

Thanks Ken, That was pretty much my question I wanted to use the RIGHT relay that would handle the 110v. Thanks, Robert > > <---Hi Robert.
