I have been searching for the cheapest, easiest design to build a power supply. I am pretty new to this, but I found a design using an l200 voltage regulator that would work great. I iam not sure what sort of power output I need though. The load will be two eight or ten wrap coils with 24 gauge wire, and a 1 uF cap in paralell with them. How do I know what the load will not to run correctly? I am thinking I need about 2A, 15 volts or so. I don't think I really need adjustable voltage, just the current adjustment.
Here is the link I am looking at for the idea- **broken link removed**
One other thing. I have seen a power supply like what I am trying to build and all it was was an unregulated supply using two 1000 uF caps after the bridge rectifier with a filter choke in paralell. This went to a power rheostat to limit the current. I want to improve the design, PLEASE HELP!!!!! I want to thank all the people who have been answering my questions, I have learned a lot. Thank you!
