I am looking for external relays to be driven by the KRC2.  I spent a discouraging hour today browsing Mouser and DEM. Found a few candidate relays but not real happy with them - too large, too expensive or out of stock. I'm looking for part numbers, sources and any suggestions.

hi Rick - sorry our sked didn't happen the other day - did have a bit of listening time, and then got called upon to deliver one of my kids to the family doctor.

Anyway, Array Solutions has 10kW relays that run at 12V for $45:
