Guys,

Im in need of some kind of relay that when triggered with a 12v supply will output a 12v on-off-on-off etc.. but I also want to be able to control the rate of the on-off-on-off output.

Does such a relay exist?

Could I use an indicator relay?

 

How do u mean control the rate? As in the duty cycle of the output?

 

yeah, I'd like to be able to control the time between the output turning on and then off and then on again.

 

can you mod an Intermittent wiper switch with variable wipe to get what you want?

 

you want a 555 timer

 

555 timer for your flamer kit

 

lol aint for a flamer kit, but its for something almost as cheesy!

I think a 555 timer chip might be too fast. I need it to power on and off around once a second.

 

Sounds like a DIY boost controller in the making to me

 

lol nah, nothing quite so sophisticated!

 

nope
