Title: Digispark Relay Kit Shield
Post by: bradlee_s on November 09, 2017, 06:56:23 pm

Can this be used to control a 16VAC door buzzer? I see it says 125VAC/250VAC. Are those maximums? Would 16VAC work with the relay?

This would absolutely work. Here https://digistump.com/wiki/digispark/tutorials/relay it says up to 5 Amps for 30VAC but you can look up further details in the data sheet of the relays (Omron G5Q)

As KASA said, it would absolutely work ;) And yes, those are the maximums, which also mean and you should be able to switch higher currents/amperages as you drop the voltage (i.e. can switch a 5A load at 250VAC, or a 10A load at 125VAC).
