cheapy 'Zero Delay' USB encoder

The only thing that the snubber diode does is prevent relay chatter from the collapsing magnetic field.
Don't bother buying a diode -- adding one won't make the relay work.

Found the datasheet for your 5v relays here. ;D
The pinout is at the bottom of page 2.
According to the datasheet, your 5v relay should close when you apply at least 3.75v@53mA. (200mW)
That should work. :dunno

Scott, I think it is time to begin phase 3 of our plan. Or is it phase 2? I don't know phases.

Scott is a great guy. But he is no Thomas A. Anderson.

I have helped a few people dodge the proverbial bullet, but stopping them in mid-air is not an option.
I'm happy to accept credit where credit is due, but I reject any implications that I'm a divine being or able to alter the Matrix. I have enough trouble altering code to make a custom KADE firmware. ;D
