Hint: think carefully before assuming that the TO220 BJT on the output can take
5A indefinitely. After about 15 minutes it overheated a little. Luckily it went
open circuit, so I still have the nicads. Not happy, now I'm forced back to 24
hour charging. Time to find some plugs that match the RCX I think.
Oh, BTW, the CyberMaster doesn't have the external power socket. Grr,
Have fun
