Hi guys still having several relay boards on stock based on sharp s202s02 SSrelays, I'm looking for use cases. The relays have a VDR as well as a 22nF/47Ohm snubber parallel to the triac. Not surprisigly I found that LED lights don't get switched fully off, as well as e.g. Switch Mode power supplies. Obviously the small current via the snubber is sufficient to power on such devices from time to time,which isn't acceptable. My question: is it correct that the the snubber ( not the VDR ) could be removed in case of load like a simple LED or a state of the art PSU ? Because no inductors involved can harm the triac ? Or is there a better solution ? Of course I know the alternatives like mechanical relays or photo mos-fets. I simply want to recycle the existing boards. Thanks in advance for your advice, Regards Thomas
