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 ...?
