[QUOTE="BluXtriad, post: 104677, member: 29095"] I see what you mean by the size of the relays I swear the the the 12v 4PDT relays I put into my xbox for the controller ports were a lot larger than that. I would prefer to use a larger relay due to the fact that I believe by using 240v would create a lot of heat buildup. The price of those relays only leave me to say ouch they are expensive. I wonder if these could be purchased for cheaper at mouser.com, but since this is US based website they may only provide up to 110V support. I think at Dans Hardware they stock a 100% compatible parrellel to usb converter, which supports all the data lines in a port not in like some converters which dont. I had this problem when trying to hook up a programer via usb to serial once then I found out they only support up to so many channels, so I had to go purchase another one for it to work to support my pic and avr programmer, and it worked brilliantly. If you are able to send those pictures and diagrams that would be sweet. I think I might have some spare blank pcb to start ethcing the the circuit board today. [/QUOTE]
