Description: The following circuit works as a toggle switch. The circuit has two stable states, ON and OFF. Once it is ON, it remains ON till you press the switch again. The project has been derived from buildcircuit.com.

You can also operate this circuit using a relay. HOW TO USE A RELAY? 

In all MINIBREAD projects, we have used the following schematic. When resistor 1K(connected to Base of transistor) gets positive voltage, the relay gets activated.
