Hi I am a beginner in electronics, so I wonder if You could help. I would like to power a DC device only once when a microswitch is pressed. Device should stay on as long as switch is pressed. When switch is released power shuts off and stays off even when switch is pressed again. Can this circuit be done using simple relays? Thank You for any help! |

It can be done with a relay, but you will need another switch to reset it.. unless you want to throw it away after you use it once :) |
