Dear Piclisters,

I have yet another question for you. I am still a newbie in electronics
and PIC's and I feel a little bit shamed that I only come to ask
questions on this list and rarely know how to answer to other questions,
but hope that someday I will be able to be more active here.
My questions is: I want to drive a siren from a microcontroller pin. The
siren is an alarm one, and consumes 12V and 3A at maximum. Which would
be the best way to control it (on/off) ? A power MOSFET, a triac maybe,
a relay ?
Thank you for your answers.

Lucian
