Did not he say average?

There is no " average " model - you moron.

Phil,

If you have nothing productive to the posting can I suggest you keep your nose out?

Anyway, don't bother because I have put up with enough of your dribble and kill-filed you.

Hey Jerd you LYING SNIPPING ASS LAZY PRICK MORON ARSHOLE FOOL - I think I got all of them :)

Have a look at the link below it has some very general info.

You could try Jaycar for the specs if you can't find them via the manufacturers part number - some of the Chinese manufacturers are good, some are not.

Getting data sheets out of Jaycar may be difficult if they are anything like (some of the guys who answer the phone) at Altronics.

Thanks Polyp,

How nice it is to get a sane reply!

Article is exactly what I was after.

If it's being activated by a magnet then magnet strength will have an effect on switching times. If you are using a solenoid you could rig one up as a relaxation oscillator and see how fast it runs on a CRO.

Reed relay switches power to the gate of a P channel mosfet which cuts power to the solenoid which opens the reed relay which cuts power to the mosfet. I've heard of N.C. reeds running at three KHz switching their own solenoid on and off.

What happened to all of the inflatable sheep? Did he over inflate them, or just wear them out?

Apparently his new abode doesn't have a garage so he has nowhere to pen all the sheep. It's also rumoured he misplaced his velcro gloves. Most likely under a pile of unreapairable toasters.

As for the fate of the sheep? Toasted rubber lamb sandwiches?

Its no wonder those toasters are unrepairable. How would you ever get that stink out of them?
