I'm wiring up the 'Radio On Until Door Opened' diagram.

What type of Diode is necessary for the job?

I grabbed a bunch of these from the recycle bin on the shop floor at work. They're labeled 'rectifiers' .. I'm not an expert, but that's still a diode, right? Can I use them for this application?

I guess I could just try using them, right :)
