TOUCH ACTIVATED SWITCH NEEDS 1.5 VOLTS  (January 18, 2002)

A single 1.5v silver oxide button cell powers this complete touch activated switch circuit for 5 years.  It features both a normally open and a normally closed set of solid state switch thermals.  It also has an adjustable sensitivity, which can be set for a touch capacitance change as small as 1 picofarad.
