what about depletion layers and fresnal zones??;)
Sorry i'm electrical not electronic! If you want to move lots of power (500A+) around or generate your own for standby use i'm your guy, if you only got a few micro amps to move round then you might as well ask me about womens shoes! I prefer 630mm2 cables to PCBs!I have a lot of problems with my neighbours, they hammer and bang on the walls sometimes until 2 or 3 in the morning - some nights I can hardly hear myself drilling

Where do you want to move it from? How far is it? I reckon if its a few hundred miles then a series of step up/step down transformers would be your best bet. 132kV sounds good to me:rotfl:You can get more power out of your 15A supply if you were able to step up the voltage on your side (more watts less amps!).:beer:I have a lot of problems with my neighbours, they hammer and bang on the walls sometimes until 2 or 3 in the morning - some nights I can hardly hear myself drilling0
