    Hi Robin,

    Great advice robin, thou you might as well be talking Marshen if folks are not into electronics:rofl:

    Don't belive James/Luke are into electronics to that level, did consider suggesting opto switch's but didn't want to cause info overload.! . . . simpler to just say use good switch's and warn of the dangers of cheap bad switch's I thought.:question:

    I've considered using opto switch's on my machine when the existing switch's start playing up. . . Thou I'm a bit unsure if they'll be ok due to flying debrie passing the opto falsely triggering switch.? . . How do they handle flying Ali chips.?

    My machine must hold the world record for slinging chip's.! . . . They even make it into the house 20yards away.! . . . Thou my boots may play a part.:naughty:

    Well, in Martian...

    Probably need photo-diodes to pick them up if they have any speed, here's the circuit :heehee:
