[chbot] Triac snubber

[Kerry Harpur]

Hi Jasper,

Just at Kerry's steam-box.

So you are using a TRIAC as a power switch to enable or disable mains to
the input of an SMPSU -- so this could just as easily be a relay

Sorry for the daft question, but I want to be completely clear
about requirements first.
