On/off switch behavior
-
I was trying to make my first on-off switch, but it is behaving oddly. I've watched video's in which the same design (only upscaled so you can actually see it without zooming in) worked. The problem is that when I spark the wire on the bottom-left it turns the switch on but at the same time somehow powers the NSCN, turning the switch off. Changing the switch to a single line instead of a loop doesn't help. What am I doing wrong?

Well, because of the way it is set up, when it is activated, a spark passes through the SWCH from the METL connected to the BTRY, as it is supposed to. But then, the spark passes from the activated SWCH to the METL next to the NSCN, then into the NSCN, deactivating the SWCH. The solution: make sure the METL for the off switch is not within three pixels of the SWCH.Hope that helped.

TPT electronics can sometimes be difficult (given that it is not very realistic), so feel free to ask me or any other people who are knowledgeable of electronics for help (using the conversations feature of the forum (incase you have never used the feature)). -
