Thank you dave
I get a bit confused with the ohms when people write it down as 220 or 2200 , my mistake I just do not know enuf yet to know these , so let me get this right and ask probably another silly question
"and you can all chuckle if you like its fine im on L plates here lol", so I'm currently using resistance in the thousands on the lm317 and should be using in the hundreds ?? ( If I dont see a k it is not thousand ) I thought (red red red gold )was 2 hundred and 22 ohms 5% , where do the extra ( 0 ) come from on my red red red i am using at the moment , yes go on laugh lol
thanks for replying dave . "And bluejets"
I need high current to run two of these chargers at the same time each charger pulls up to 6amps on fast charge max setting hence the high current psu , they dont work in the shed on wall adapters and they cook laptop psu's, they only work properly when im out in the car, I can run both off the car battery just fine on max at the same time on the field , I also wanted a adjustable power supply for my shed not just for these chargers, to run other other things that aren't 12v and to test/build other projects in the future , and just to learn this kind of stuff as its really interesting addictive and satisfying to learn and build my own things
, every one starts somewhere this is where im starting with this adjustable psu
. Thank you all for putting in the time to post to me I hope you all follow this closley so I can learn from you all and mabe add to this circuit if / when I get it running properly please keep replying I have a amp meter and a volt meter to fit to this when I finally get my head around my learning curves . Again I thank all of you , remember I am a real noob not done this before L plate first timer lol
