I miss it. I see there are indicator lamps now, but no time delay relays yet.

How did we get into dental work? Certainly it works well to hold loose teeth in, and as well, it can be used to repair other things such as the knobs on your car radio, if that radio is from the Chinkachunka radio factory. > >where did the capacitor go?

I suspect he doesn't understand the concept of the necessity of time delay relays! |
