Off Topic--Electronic gurus
Ok guys I setting up something for some kids and I have a siren that is going to go off, but when the siren goes off I want it to shut off 10 seconds later. So basically when power is supplied I need something inline that automatically disconnects power after 10 seconds then resets. Any type of relay or ??? that will do this? Thanks

Yes there is. It's called a time delay relay. I'm no electronics guru, but I'll search around and see what I can dig up. Jim, (Megawatt) should be along shortly and probly have a pn. for you.
edit: Here's what I'm refering too, but you'll need a socket to use with this style- http://www.tycoelectronics.com/catalog/feat/en/c/15003

Go down to your local electric supply house (Grainger, CED etc) tell them what you are doing and they will have everything there for you. The above mentioned will work and I'm willing to bet they have that and the sockets in stock.

Wonder if it could double for a GPR.

I didn't look around that site too much, but that sounds like something we would use on DC powered forklifts!

300 Amp Intermittent duty.
2 Threaded terminals for the contacts.
1 Threaded terminal with 1/4" push-on terminals for the coil.
The coil grounds through the mounting bracket.
Measures: 3" x 2" x 2-3/4". </td></tr></tbody></table>
would that work very well though i would think a seperate lug for the ground would be better.

I didn't make that final click for "more details", where I would have seen that little detail.
Thanks for going the extra mile.

The Stancor 802-586-902 is 200 continuous, 600 inrush (1/2 second).
Just the same, the one from skycraftsurplus needs to have another coil lug to be useable with out some kind of modification.
That relay might be good for some other applications, but not the GPR.
I may still buy one, however.
