Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, although I think 1A might be too low.

257800 2004-08-03 10:25:00 Yes, Mike you are correct.. It is called "watts" that is volts x amps= watts, and so as the volts are changed, the amps available from a power supply also change. Bazza (407)
257801 2004-08-03 10:30:00 That conclusion is true, particularly for the smaller units DSE sells.

Should not apply for the one in Terry's link, and its not mentioned in the fine print in the one I linked either. Its possible though in the latter case.

In a switchmode its not always the case, as the watts are not limited to a transformer core rating like a conventonal step-down unit.
