another air pump question
-
hi i am planning on installing an air pump system similar to the berd one but i need to know if i have to use the e switch that makerhive sell or is there an alternative, i only ask because makerhive have stopped shipping outside of the us.
-
The e-switch is recommended if you use a fan output because of the high starting current of the air pump motor. Alternatively you can connect it to a spare heater output if you have one, but in that case you also need to add a flyback diode.

@dc42 do you have any recommendations for the fly back diode
