(Disclaimer: I previously started another thread about this question, but I totally jacked it up and deleted my original post, so now it makes no sense. I've asked an admin to please delete the previous thread, and I'll continue in this one.)
Need some help from someone smarter than me! I'm planning to build a couple of arduino/SSR module control boxes for this coming Christmas, but I need a little help. Long story short, I have a few light strings that will probably need more amperage than the 2A provided by your typical high-level trigger arduino-capable module.
This is what I've already purchased: http://r.ebay.com/7JbeWE
I've found some similar SSR modules on eBay that say they'll handle up to 8 Amps of AC current.
They are listed here: http://r.ebay.com/EQKkz0
So here's the question. Will these work together properly using the same Arduino program? They're both high-trigger (the 8A has to be set to high-trigger), and both are listed as arduino compatible. I'm planning on using this program, which was recommended by Dee Higginbottom on Youtube: http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?36477-Multiple-Arduinos/page2
I am totally clueless when it comes to programming, so I need to make sure I can use a program that's already out there for me to "borrow." So, will this work if I use these two different types of relays side-by-side in the same box?
Thanks in advance! :thup:
