Can someone out there help me make sense out of the dizzying array of solid state relays?
I run a 12v (ok 14v) system and want to learn how to decide what is an appropriate solid state relay that will accept as input a few milliamps and output a couple of amps continuously (when receiving the milliamp input signal). Searching on "solid state relay" produces literally thousands of examples, but not knowing how to interpret the specs I can't seem to tell if they are suitable for continuous duty (some clearly say they aren't) etc.
I'm also interested in replacing aging mechanical relays for trim and flaps which are NOT continuous duty but may have more total amperage draw.
Thanks!
