I have used the attached circuit with good success, but it did not have the bleeder resistor, R2, and so C1 took a few seconds to discharge. If I make R2 1MΩ and install it as shown, will it reduce the discharge time to less than 1 second, is a 1/4 watt resistor satisfactory, and is there any downside to having it in the circuit?
Thanks.
Thanks.
