The SCR part number I am currently TESTING (will know more in about a week), is TYN616RG from mouser.
A SCR is a silicon controlled rectifier, think of it as a diode that is turned on with a switch (its gate), once turned on it acts like a diode and will conduct even if the power to the gate is taken away (so the switch is like a one shot turn on), to turn it off you must take away the power from the diode itself, that will reset it. I talk about it in my terrible video, man I need to make a follow up video LOL.
