Best Relay
As many of you know, I am a fan of the OMRON relays for the V11. I found Ryland3210's evaluation compelling and have seen numerous (other) relay failures on V11 over the years.
Yet, I'm afraid I keep posting a Digikey link for an part no longer available through them.
I struggle with deciphering this part number:
G8HN-1C2T-R DC12
--->EDIT (Mar 28 2018): Best (High Current) Relay, derived from this thread: Link to this post on page 5: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.ph
*Best* relay for the V11 has been the High-Current OMRON G8HE-1C7T-R-DC12 , but out of production and hard to source. [rated 20a N.C./ 35a N.O.]
> EDIT/ July 2025: the preferred High Current relay from @Speedfrog:
Picker Components PC782-1C-12S-R-X Data Sheet
[rated 25 / 30 "resistive"]
[ Form A (4-pin) relays can be used in positions #2-#5.
Only position #1, front/ Start Relay
