Thats way to involved for this project. These are just candles on the mantle. I hate turning on 30 different things every night, and would rather flip one...
it does seem to favor some of the lights. Oddly enough, the last several times I have turned them on they have all worked. Before when they weren't, I was...
I have used 7809 that I purchased from Mouser electronics to solve a similar problem, I was running a 9VDC wall wart that turned out to be unregulated and it...
I am with Vern on this one, Wall warts a notoriously unstable power supplies, I would add a 1000uf capacitor to the output of the wall wart, The cap will...
This supply is a regulated one, so the 7805 shouldn't be necessary. I don't know about the cap though, would it still be needed with a regulated supply? Where...
I think that if you wanted that camera to work on your wireless network, you'd have to drop your level of encryption on your entire network just to allow that...
I would try a big cap (1000uf) at the start of the daisy chain and if that doesn't work try adding smaller ones at each tea light (10uf). ... necessary. I ......
Sorry for the cross post, but I was hoping that someone could help answer my problem. I originally posted this to the Halloween-L, where Vern took a stab at...

Don't know. I will have to try it tonight and reply tomorrow. I didn't bring the hardware in to work with me this morning. Thanks for the reply! CoffinBound...

Thanks, Dave. I found a 6VDC wallwart rated at 300mA that has a couple of torx screws holding the case together. I'll try it with this one since it will be...

Thanks, Vern. Just to clarify, I should place the 100 ohm resistor in parallel to the SSR, right? The max input current for the SSR is 25mA so I'm thinking I...
