@s0 Phosphor the poor underpowered VPS would like me to know they are *not* happy with importing all this stuff
Blocking nasty instances important shork duty.

The sunrise is quite lovely.
Thar be PURPLE
The 3 AV servers now have names (and colourful nametags  )
Well I’m glad *someone* appreciates the humidity
THE CULPRIT IS CAUGHT! This poly cap which is in series with the bridge rectifier input is reading at only 55% of nominal! So the rectified voltage is too low to actually trigger the relay coil! Can’t believe I didn’t test this much earlier 
Ok, the relay definitely works fine! Now to test all the diodes I suppose.
Spent the last few hours reverse engineering the schematic and checking it. Any suggestions for possible culprits? The relay isn’t switching on. Sorry I forgot the silicon rectifier part number. R3 and R4 are 1-2W, others are 1/4W. Ignore scribbles on the bridge rectifier I drew diodes wrong at first.
