I'm not an expert on power circuits, but a google search turned up this web site with a number of interesting power supply circuits (there is a search option).

(...) No, purely resistive. Although it does have a "boot up" time, I think it's just due to heating up the element. I'm not completely sure if the element will respond better to a "dimmer" type set-up (running it at less than normal voltage) or a (...)

| | Anyone else tried the Firgelli actuators?

I decided to spring for one of the expensive Firgelli actuators, and just gave it a quick try. I either got a broken unit, or it is the worst piece of junk anyone has ever made for NXT. First of all, you command it to move a distance, not command it (...) (14 years ago, 25-Jan-11, to lugnet.robotics)
