do high current (5-10A) relays with 5V coils even exist?

Hi - I've been looking through the mouser catalog (though I could order
through other companies as well if needs be) and I simply have not been
able to find a DPDT relay with a coil voltage of 5V that can handle 5-10
amps. Is this a hopeless search? And relay contacts are only rated for
current, and not voltage, correct? I haven't been able to find contact
voltage ratings for the relays I've been looking at - but I would think
that with really high voltages arcing would become a problem. Any
suggestions? Thanks alot as always,

Michael

I dunno if anyone's ever told you this before - but in case anyone hasn't -
let me be the first: You are the man! That works out perfectly for me.
Great price, great size, simply perfect. Thanks so much!

So go to Potter & Brumfield, or Omron, or American Zettler, or any
other number of relay mfgr's websites and check there. Google will
help you find them.

How's this? You're a friggin moron! This is an objective observation and
not a belittlement- you need to work on getting better. I someone had
told you this before you might have worked harder, troll.

Incorrect. Relay contacts are rated for both voltage and
current.

Glad you got the relay number from Sphero!
