is removed. This may hurt your RCX.

Rubbish. The same happens for motors, and the RCX handles this.

(...) OK. What I was thinking of was that if a current flows through a coil, that be a relay, transformer or motor, the current can't change at an instant. If you break the circuit current will keep running through the coil for a short time. This (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)
