Buy decent relays then, of which there is really only one option - Omron.
Standard relay is good for 50 million OPs, if you use them within manufacturers ratings.
Just one example, did you know that most relays have a minimum switching current, and if you don't meet it they will fail pretty quickly. I bet you never even considered that.
- eternityforest 2y agoIf I have enough control over the design that I can choose a relay brand, why wouldn't I just use an integrated protected switch IC? Unless I know going to want to switch AC or something, or it's a special safety relay. People who make cheap off the shelf gadgets don't use Omron. That's actually really interesting to know about the minimum switching current though!
