[DeTomaso] Questions on the Rick Moseley relay kit

[Christopher Kimball]

I used Dakota Digital fan relays, and they are great.  You simply hook them up to a block-mounted sensor, program at what temperature you want each of the two fans to turn on and off (independently), and off you go.  No other relay or circuit needed.

 

Sincerely,

 

Chris
