I am building a swimming pool Ionizer.
I am using a PIC12F200 to switch a relay on for one hour then off for one hour.
The relay is a double pole double toggle wired to switch the electrodes between positive and negative.
The electrodes are basically two copper strips.
The power source is a 6Volt 0.3Watt panel so will only have a maximum current of 50mA.
What I am trying to find out is if I need a resistor on the electrode.
