The only experience I've have with reeds .... is
them getting stuck!!?? Tap tap tap them with my
finger(nails).?? Then they'd release.?? Finally got
frustrated and gave up.

relay driver
hi dave,
One big pitfall in using reed relays is not using
them with the desired voltage.. believe me.. i've had hell in operating a 12 V
rated relay on 9 V . dc relays .. inthis case.. i haven't worked with AC
relays.. the relays in this case function on 9V.. but some times.. the reed
just about does not make the contact when energised.. whereas it may appear
externally that the metallic strip has moved.. any how , it is better to
operate them at rated voltage
