As normal i wasn't fully thinking...

With the full wave rectifier, i have a situation ware the triac constantly sees gate voltage on the inverse of the ac wave. Because the negative of the micro GND is sometimes at 0 and 115v. (On top of that is is out of sync wiith the mains ac.)Anyways the solution is fairly easy i just was not thinking

No mod wires this time just oddly connected rectifier(useing it as a diode.) SO now micro gnd is the same as triac power rail. Good thing i had 9 boards to messwith:)

And i have another Toy in the mail.(may as well do this right)
