Default How would you test a sensitive gate TRIAC?

Replace it, they're cheep, 2 bucks. If it's an NTE marked part # it's
been replaced before.


Yeah, I just wanted to know how to test it, to maybe save a trip across
town by bus. If my candy store stocks this part, I may just do that though.

Thanks,
