Re: Can someone help me with this electronic light switch?!
The original diagram does not work because the ground is not universal. The transistor will not allow current to go backwards so it would be ok to connect the ground from the battery to the ground on the parallel port. At this point, the ground would be universal and would be a closer step to working. The other thing I'm curious about is the solenoid itself... it is a 9 volt solenoid, right?
Hope this helps,

Re: Can someone help me with this electronic light switch?!
I'm not actually sure if they are nine volts, since I got them from an old machine. They seem to work with nine volts though. Does it matter? Sorry, I'm a pretty big noob with this stuff.

Re: Can someone help me with this electronic light switch?!
Wow, thanks a lot! I really appreciate that Just one question though, is all I need to obtain now two 100 ohm resistors? I'm not sure if I'm looking at the schematic correctly :p
