Instead of a voltage regulator I've read a rectifier diode can be used to drop voltage.
I'm wanting to drop 6v to 5v and I've read that a IN4001 will drop 0.7v - Is this correct?
Does this work without heat like with volt regs?
Please can anyone provide info on this and what I need to get and how to wire it?
Thank you so much!
