Where did you get the latching
relays, and what are their numbers. I
have several projects that could use
latching relays. Hopefully they
are affordable, the ones I have found are
very pricey ( > $10) Are
they true mechanical latching relays, that
will keep the settings
with no power?

I fail to see why doing the same
thing over and over and getting the
same results every time is insanity:
I've almost proved it isn't;
only a few more tests now and I'm sure
results will differ this time ...?
