It gives you power to control, and control over power. \u003cstrong\u003ePut simply, you can now turn on and off lamps, fans, solenoids, and other small appliances that run on up to 250VAC or DC power using any Feather board\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing our Feather Stacking Headers or Feather Female Headers you can connect a FeatherWing on top of your Feather board and let the board take flight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe are two 'flavours' of these FeatherWings, this is the simple Non-Latching relay\u003c\/strong\u003e. This Wing has a single Set pin. Normally, the relay's COM pin is connected mechanically to the NC pin and the NO pin is disconnected. We also stock the Adafruit Latching Mini Relay FeatherWing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the SET pin is pulled high, the relay switches and the internal switch changes so that the COM pin is mechanically connected to the NO pin and NC is then disconnected\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the relay is active, a red LED is lit, and about 50mA of current is used to keep the coil switched on. \u003cstrong\u003eNote, if power is lost, the relay will go back 'open'\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNow, you might be thinking \"wow, I really don't want to waste 50mA of current, that will really sink my battery life!\". OK good news, we have another type of FeatherWing, the\u003c\/strong\u003e Latching FeatherWing. You need two pins but save power. Note, if power is lost, the relay will stay in the last setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth FeatherWings use the same family of relay.\u003cstrong\u003e You can switch up to 2A of resistive current at 30VDC or ~40VAC or lower. At 110VDC you can switch up to 0.6A, at 120VAC up to 0.5A, and at 250VAC you can switch up to 0.3A.\u003c\/strong\u003e Check the datasheet for the relay for the exact switching capacity, and of course, for reactive\/inductive loads you will need to derate. This isn't a relay you can use to turn on and off your washer\/dryer, stick to 60W or less. For up to 1200W devices, check out our Power Featherwing which can handle up to 10A!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach FeatherWing comes with a fully assembled and tested PCB with the terminal block soldered on, we include header you can use to attach to your Feather. Some light soldering is required.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e If using with high voltages (\u0026gt; 24V), use care and common sense!
