Default Using a capacitor as a "wattless" dropper on 110 volt equipment?

The only time a saleswoman made me laugh was when she told me they were cheaper than RS.




There is quite a lot of stuff cheaper on RS than ebay.
But cpc are usually cheaper still.

The hall effect switches I use on my train layout are 69p at CPC or £3
on ebay and amazon.

I thought about buying a few hundred and listing them myself but it not
going to make me a fortune.


This the sort of thing needed and its more likely to actually be safe
than one off some dodgy ebay trader from some unspecified place in china.
