What temperature sensor probe are you going to use for the HLT ?

The relay is in place as a switch that can handle the higher current.

WARNING.....DANGER.......WRONG RELAY.


The link supplied in the post by jmc on 30/11/2011 goes to a Maplins 12volt dc coil relay.
The relay in the text refers to a 240 volt ac coil relay.
Electrically two very different items.
I got the moderators to change a similar link about a year back.
Could somebody please correct the link before something dodgy occurs.

Cheers all.

Ive changed the links to the maplins relays to show 240v coil models,but best to double check your buying the correct relays as maplins have a habit of moving stock codes around
