Is there a reason you can't use a relay for this? Space is limited using a relay. I was hoping 1 triac with the C/O function instead of using 2 triacs. I want to fit the unit inside a standard switch. I have seen a small relay that might fit but then I have to consider drive to the relay. z -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
