Overkill? I wonder, does anyone do it as standard? Click to expand... I did.

This way there is no transient suppression built in and inductive loads will make short work of the Cards tiny relay contacts. I have used these SLIM IDEC relays and I am happy with them. Transient suppression built in. LED Built in. Easy to swap bad relay. http://us.idec.com/Catalog/ProductSeries.aspx?SeriesName=RV_Series
