I'm trying to use my little AVR to control up to 12 120VAC loads, up to 5
amps. Â Does anyone know of a cheap (< $5 US) relay (SPST-NO) that only
needs 40 mA or less to activate? Â My Tyco T77 relays need 90 mA at 5VDC to
pull in the contacts, it turns out, so the processor dies. The lowest I've
found on-line is 60 mA. I don't have a harsh environment, or rapid
switching requirements, just need a simple on-off relay. Â I'm switching
banks of lights, should look cool if I can get it to work. Â Thanks for any
advice.
