Finding latching Relays

Any body know where I can find then in 12V configuration?

First time VWP don't have what I am looking for.

RS Latching Relays

Of any use?

I used these guys frequently. The service was superb and some bits I found to be cheaper than VWP.

They have a latching relay.

Why not make one from a normal relay? Just take the switched output and run it through a 'push to break switch' and back to the relay coil feed.

Not feasable for the application.

Herman,
The relay suggested by Howlor, from AES, is ideal for what you want, part number 140209, price £14.22 each.

Edit: If you have any problem getting them, I don't mind getting them and sending on to you as I said before.

maplins, here sell one.

And before ye all scream, it is 12 V but only 2 A, you can use it to switch a fatter relay, so all in, cost should come in under £ 6. assuming you have the space for 2.
