    Yeah, it kind of was, but I was unable to get the right capacitors and so I was hoping if I knew what I needed to end up at, I could reverse engineer what I needed.

    It looks like I need 12v+ and 5amps on my output, does that sound about right? I've got the 50w DC-DC PSU that came with the Cubid case.

    I think as long as I find the right components I'll be ok..

    And here is the regulator I'm building:
    If you're going to use my circuit drawing from my website, please don't link directly to my website and eat my bandwidth. Copy it to your own website and link to that. Bandwidth costs money.

    Also, no reference to where you "nicked" the diagram from. Netiquette, please.

    You are fussing about a 9k image? How much is your bandwidth costing??? Where is my credit for the tank circuit? I was the first to post any kind of information about a tank circuit to this board. I don't see anyone sending me thankyou cards in the mail.

    PS: .gifs are better for mono graphics..
    :-)

    if I choose the right diode and made a circuit board for it etc. If I put on my website would anyone buy it for 10 bucks or so?

    It's not the actual cost it's the principal of the thing. It may only be a 9k image, but it's a 9k image for every time anyone ever looks at this thread...ever. Adds up, not a lot, but it does.

    It wasn't a tank circuit, it was a regulator circuit which he has now removed without fuss.

    The image from my site was a .gif.

    As I say it's just good courtesy if you're referencing someone elses work in a post to refer readers to their site rather than just using the images.

    If you put the diode, a 22,000uF cap, and the board into a pkg for $10, I'd buy one. Although it looks like I might be buying my own since I need it ASAP.

    Ditto with GingerPrince's circuit, which regulates a 12v output, although that would cost a bit more ($20 maybe).
