Hello again,
It is time for me to acquire a better bench top power solution. Most of the time I will use it to power a breadboard for experimentation. I used a wall wart for awhile until it got super noisy, and batteries are a hassle. I was about to go for something like this:
And then attach something like this:
For someone still in the larval stage, do you suppose this would be adequate? Will 15V be enough for future growth? So far I've done mostly
5V logic, 9V guitar stompboxery and small radio. Occasionally I've done some 18V and 24V stuff, though. I see that a lot of other power supply kits say they go up to 30V, but they cost upwards of 4x as much.Am I being too cheap? I was going to just buy/dumpsterdive the parts and use an online schematic, but I might not know enough to verify a schematic before I fry myself and burn the house down. Therefore I think a kit is the way to go- should be correct, comes with all the right parts, and (hopefully) has instructions that'll teach me a thing or two.
I've looked at a bunch of kits and this Elenco one seems pretty idiot proof, but is there anything else you folks might suggest otherwise?
Thanks.
