Just got off the phone with All Electronics and they are currently out of stock for the photo flash capacitors. I have looked on a couple of other "surplus...
Errol, have you tried asking for them at the photo finishers places? The shoot, process & toss cameras are mostly just trashed. I got a sack full. No problem....

A couple of things you guys need to keep in mind. The only time the resistors really see full load is during a shorted condition. The servo motor should react...

Hi Deon, when you contact your transformer supplier, tell them what you intend to use it for and see if they will offer a de-rating value. When using a high...

Hi Dave, Ben, Thanks for all the feedback. I have however decided to rather stick to the book and use a 50V transformer. My knowledge about electronics is just...
