Although I'm not yet in a position to really consider it yet (see my previous post), I've been wondering, in this current climate is it really worth the gamble to set up on your own? I don't, as yet, know just how competitive it is out there.

Hi, I'm trying to source a relay to replace one on a PCB board. The relay in question is a Tianbo HJQ-13F-2Z but I can't find any UK suppliers online. Does anyone know of a supplier or an alternative relay I could use? The relay is rated at 10A 240VAC 30VDC.
Thanks
