Oh yeah, I forgot to add my usual disclaimer for things
of this nature: Do it at your own risk. If things aren't
connected up quite right, you could fry your RCX.
To be safe try the circuit first by connecting it to a 9v
battery box (try both polarities).

| Thanks for the help, Mark! I have a few questions still (I'm a novice at electronics). (...) I live in The Netherlands, so instead of Radio Shack I buy at Conrad. Is there a universal transistor description in this case? (...) What does "in (...) (22 years ago, 30-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| Here's a circuit you might try (please forgive the crudeness, it's hand drawn): (URL) transistor is easy to find (Radio Shack in the U.S. carries it). The resistor is such a low value because the current being switched is relatively high and it's (...) (22 years ago, 30-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)
