Re: NiCad Battery for decorative use?

'Power Passive'....

Say I have a bunch of 12V devices on my OI... And going between the device and ground I have a little 5V $2.79 RadioShack relay. Can I use the output pins on Port 3 to allow power though to the 12V devices? No (Very, very, very, very little) power is being consumed, the relays are simply getting a signal to allow power through.

Is this legal?
Jacob
