The second run of the boards is being done as a group buy at Headwize. If you're interested in the board and have not signed up yet, you can do it now.

Most of the current is pulled by the relay coil, so your relay choice is what determines whether a particular transformer is good enough. The 1.5VA spec is good for the Omron G8P relay. Yes, thermal compound should be applied to the thermostat's heatsink mating surface. |
