Along similar lines, anyone know of a nice way to regulate 9.6V down
to 6 or so, at 2 or 3 amps peak?  I'm looking for something that's
efficient, and won't try to burn itself out during normal use.  Possibly
something like the LM317 is available in a high current version?  What about
DC-DC converters?  Do they work at anything over a few tens of mA?  Maybe
some of the electronics buffs around here are familiar with this...

I think what you need is only a simple VR( voltage regulator) It kinda resembles a transitor in appearance). I'm curious to know whether this is all you need. I'm not an EE either so I wonder if you need heat sinks or capacitors or something. ? (...) (29 years ago, 15-Apr-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
