| | | Wow! I didn't realize you had so many automated/automatic gizmos. Who did the drive in theatre? I've been trying to do a sign to rotate EXACTLY like the one at that drive in, maybe the person responsible might be willing to share the details. The (...)

The Diode Bridge allows the power to flow only one way regardless of what way the polarity is. It also cuts down on how much power comes though. (...)
