I did learn quite a bit with this though. I'll break down and buy the PROPER chips and then move on to experiment #2. Jon, the more I look at your EFX boards, the cheaper they look (grin). Your FC-4 is pretty neat! Thank you for sharing that schematic. One of these days I'll start another thread about stage lighting and heavy duty triacs (i.e. 35A) but for now I need to stay focused with the task at hand. Ken Gracey's words keep ringing in my ears. He was talking about the early days of developing his walking robots and said something like learn how to do something and then perfect it. The result for him was each version of his walking robots were better and included more innovations. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=208526#m209125 Need assistance?
