      Can anyone tell me for sure whether or not DOF will support the SainSmart 16-Channel 9-36V USB Relay Module?

      I know the 8 channel one works so I would assume this one does too.

      Thanks,

      Gwen

          OK thanks, looks like I will need to go with the 8 port one then.  Unless you guys have a better recommendation.

              OK, I didn’t realize ledwiz could work as a relay for 12V solenoids.  I currently have a pacled64 driving my button led’s, can it serve the same function with solenoids too?

              Edit- I did some research and it looks like the answer is no.

              I see the Ledwiz provides 500ma 5V output per channel, so I assume I would need a power booster for solenoids?  I guess I am just asking exactly what I need to buy to drive the solenoids if I use a Ledwiz.

                You need a simple $2.00 with ledwiz that is correct if you are using solenoids or a motor. I use cantactors for flippers and pop bumpers so no relay needed but I use a simple relay for knocker, gear motor, chime unit etc with ledwiz

                  Sorry I think there might be a word missing in your reply after “$2.00”.  I’m not certain what you are referring to.

                    If your driving a solenoid or a motor you need a relay(2 bucks) if you use the ledwiz
