Hi. I recently came across this website sporting a circuit for an automatic lamp dimmer.
I don't have a lot of experience with electronics so i just wanted to ask about the components used in the circuit. The capacitors are the only things that are given a voltage rating, does this mean we can take the resistors to all be 1/4W? Or are we supposed to calculate the power through them? Also unsure about the current through the inductor. Here's a link to the website:
