And flying in at a tangent, I’ve been making flashing LED displays (of course) and making audio modules play cool sounds – but almost everything needs a 5v power supply.

Phone chargers are great for this kind of thing, but after long lengths of wire around a miniature diorama, thanks to “voltage drop” in the cables, a 5v supply source can often end up being 3.8v or less at the other end. So I was looking for a way to have multiple “step down” converters along a length of a pair of wires supplying 9v/12v.

I was aiming for 5V.

I guess 4.98v will have to do. Now….. where did I put those LEDs for my #lockdownleisureleague diorama projects?
