So I've almost got everything working for my penny sorter, but I'm having issues with the comparitor. I have another one that I bought with the PS already intact for my other sorter, and my new sorter works with that PS just fine. However, when I wired it up with my new adapter, as soon as it makes a match (im using a Zinc to compare, so as soon as I drop another Zinc in it) the trap opens and won't shut until I kill the power. Again, it works just fine with the other adapter.
Both of the adapters I'm using are 12V, but one is 12V with 1A (the one that seems to work) while the other is 12V with 150mA. They are the exact same comparitor.
I've wired 1 & 8 to the "hot" (non-striped wire) and 2 to the striped-wire. I thought I might have reversed the polarity or something, but I've tried every other combo of wires and that is the only one that works at all. Anyone have any ideas?
