    I agree - simple to interface, and quiet in operation - I used 8 in a "disco light controller" to switch 240 vac spot lamps. They can be expensive, but if you're lucky, e-bay can result in a cheap purchase

    EDIT:

    Just searched e-bay - 240v 4 amp SSR - pack of 4 for a buy now price of £5.99 plus £2.50 PPH
