I programmed a 90-30 PLC a couple years ago so I'm not a newbie when it comes to PLC's... it was just a gig during high school so it's not my life, but I remember how handy they were for certain things.
I noticed in my in-laws house a old setup they have for a heating damper control. It's a couple of relays that flicker on and off depending on the thermostats.
A tiny little PLC would replace them pretty nicely and make everything look a lot slicker, but looking around it doesn't seem there are very many cheap little packages to buy? I saw the Unitronics and then the other main one (something -05, can't remember the rest of it) - I'm looking for something that's even cheaper though.
I just didn't know if there are any cheap consumer level ones that are in the sub-$100 range for this or Christmas light customizing? They're so handy and the technology is so simple, I thought they would be a commodity by now.
eBay my best bet for a older 90-micro?
