[NJARC] Looking for a small relay

I have had several kind offers, and I'm pretty sure I'm be covered on this, so "Thank You" to all who replied.

I'll be using this to handicap-adapt a doorbell-type pushbutton switch my mother-in-law uses to call the nurse. She can't manage the button anymore, so I'm rigging up a proximity sensor so merely putting her hand on or near it will ring the bell. 

I originally thought the sensor featured a contact closure output, but it turns out that it sources (or sinks? I always get confused.) current at 6-12 volts, hence the need for a relay.

Thanks,
-- Dave

Hi all, I am in somewhat desperate need of a small relay, one that will pull in on 300 ma or less at 6-12 volts DC. I could pick up at our museum on Sunday, or directly from you if you're anywhere near Parsippany, or by mail. Any reasonable price. Thanks,-- Dave Sica732-382-0618
