Ok, Cause I am new to this I am going to act like I know what is going on... ::) What I am trying to do is to find a timer circuit that will go for about 7 to 10 seconds and then turn on a relay and not release the relay unless either a reset manually or power loss. I have searched the web and found some circuits that will turn on a relay, but then it will shut down / release the relay after a few seconds / minutes.
