Re: Any electronics nerds interested in Arduino/Atmel?

Does anyone know how I could control:

1) A large cooling fan (like 30A) with a solid state relay or transistor? What could handle that load? A big MOSFET in a can with a heat sync?

2) An AC motor like a compressor? I'd like to soft-start my compressor but again don't know what kind of solid state switch would bear a big 240V compressor!
