The fireplace has a slot below with the 2 fans or vaccums, and the original switch broke on the device itself. It is not at all in any way connected or a part of the house itself. The entire piece comes out of the metal fireplace. (so I would not be even able to use wall switch if a wanted to)...

I am unsure what it is exactly, but it is either a fan or vacuum for moving air. there are 2 of them, both hooked up, and they consist of a cylindrical device.

I have an old firelpace, and the main switch (originally a circuit for a variable resistor) broke and the old owners just rewired around the circuit board(cut the lines from it). I want to place a switch on one of the the lines. But the only switches I found were all rated at 3A 125VAC, 1.5A...

I was planning on wanting to do a single purchase of like a grab bag or kit of some sort.

Darnit. So I'll have to pass on that. Do you know of anywhere/thing I can purchase that contains DIP logic gate ic chips of different kinds?

Alright, thank you. This will al be very useful

Alright, I'm fairly new to the drawing part of circuits. So I now, slightly off topic and quick, I am thinking of buying a random assortment of ic chips, but it says both dip and smd. Is smd just dip but the prongs are at a 90deg angle...

So when the inverter get a 0, does it pull electricity from a Separate line to invert that 0 to a 1?

Ok, I have not seen that symbol before (and I took a huge step when asking this question), but I'm guessing the diode triangle with open ball inverts a 1 making it a 0 instead?

Sorry, I'm probably getting confused somewhere. I keep seeing this and see that nand let's there be a 0 when there is both inputs 1. Am messing myself up somewhere?

I may be a bit confused,but a nand gate sends a 1 as long as there is a 1 on an input. The diagram(above), how I am reading it is that as long as one is 1, the other will also return a 1(which I am looking for a reverse where if one is 1, the other will always return a 0) This is where I looked...

Sorry, it does sound unusual and not right, I did mean High/1.

I want to break away from my arduino and learn more off hand stuff so I don't spend as much time and memory on my arduino

A= wire 1 B= wire 2 C= which was active first A B C | OutPut-A output-B 1 0 A| 1 0 1 1 A| 1 0 0 0 0| 0 0 0 1 B| 0 1 1 1 B| 0 1 I have not made a truth table before, so This may be a little rough

So this summer I plan on taking a long break from my arduino and learning some more 'ancient' and fun stuff. I plan on learning to use and make different circuits using TTL's. I have read a bit on it and learned on the basic logic gates like(using '/' as separator for the reverse) n/and,n/or...
