Re: Capacitor size

It would be a really good idea to provide a schematic of your
circuit.The description is'nt really crystal clear :)
Are you sure that the PICKAXE can supply enough current to the relay
board when the lamp is connected?Measuring the current throught the
lamp should help.
Hmm, the picaxe output goes to a transistor (on the relay board) that sends the 12V unregulated voltage to the relay.

The current to the lamp is not running in the circuit, just connected to the screwterminals of the relay board (230Vac) (NC and common of the relay).

I didnt make a schematic before making the board as it was fairly simple, but I can draw one up later.
