    One for the electronics geniuses

    What i'm needing is a relay that'll run off almost no amperage (the shift light circuit on the link , designed to run a LED) and switch a current of enough amperage to switch a normal 12v relay...... Any Ideas????

    Could use a transistor to switch the coil on and off (works like a relay with no moving parts).

    /edit: Oh yeah, just use a big transistor (fet)

    Check with Link, that output may be able to drive the relay directly.

    Which is what the kit does, plus its only 4 parts on a nice easy kit, only thing is it looks a little bulky, plus its only 12 bucks

    Agreed, nice little kit, perfect for what he needs (assuming he is planning on running a big fat light off of it)

    /edit: What are you planning on doing with it? NOS solenoids might need more current than that relay provides?

    Could it be to pull the clutch in?
    Speed limits are just a suggestion, like pants.
