I don't have a multimeter and i DO have a poor memory

Computer power supply plugs. Which wire is which?

My leaky memory seems to think that yellow is 5v and red is 12v.... this right?

It helps  to do a quick web search when you can't remember...  ::)

The web is your friend.  Use it, then don't ever call it to say "what's up"...  ;)

That was an interesting read... Not sure why I read the whole page but I did read it.  ;D
My statements are my own opinions. They have the value that the reader gives them. My opinion of my opinion varies between foolish and brilliant and these opinions often change with new information.

If you notice, its edited. I actually had red as 5 and yellow as 12 originally but a web site told me contrary so I changed it......

thats what you get for trusting the web....

Any hoo..... I got my new computer controlled power relay all hooked up.
