It is probably going to be hard, if not impossible, to find anyone that
can use an ISA card these days
There are lots of older boxes that have at least a couple of ISA slots.
I figure anything this unit would be plugged into to, say, control a
model railway layout or similar, is not going to be the latest Alienware
gaming engine. In addition a lot of industrial computers used on the
factory floor and such still use ISA as it's well-proven and there's a
lot of kit out there that's been in production for twenty years or more.
- and a relay card that can't handle mains limits it even further.
Relays offer isolation triac circuits don't. If I wanted this to switch
mains on and off I'd use a separate second relay or triac circuit. The
3A/24V DC load capability will easily drive a separate mains relay,
keeping the 240V off the relay board's PCB.
