Hello,
Have a circuit already built but its output is not enough to activate a solenoid. Power supply comes from 12vdc car battery amperage a plenty. There are so many transistors out there and i've been googling for a day or two and they all try to get the voltage from the input source. I'm just trying to get the 5 volt 50ma outputs of my circuit to turn on a transistor that will output 12 volts at up to 5 amps. Solenoid is 25 ohms.
Thanks so much.
