ok now next question for our resadent electronic specialists [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
what kinda diode would allow up to 1 amp/120v in one direction and stop it in the other..? I was looking on radioshack's page but there are to many types of diodes.
(basicly I want to allow 40watts to pass through but nothing to be able to come back so the shut down balast will not be fed by the running one. I will put a diode on each wire also so I think a 1 amp sustained stopping capability should be enuf)

how can you tell I am getting close to the time to put everything togeather.. got too work out all the little stuff that has been put off due to procastanation [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

hmm to bad I can't remember most of the electronic stuff I was taught [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
