Iron Pumpkin(s) and other smaller vegetable animals, Tips 'n' Tricks thread

Your Mightiness,
I am about to order the parts and have some :deerman:questions 😀
  • Zeners: is 500 mW okay?
  • NTC 10R: dito, is 500 mW okay?
  • What should be the value of C112, C113 and R140? (connencted to the rectifier bridge)
  • What should be the value of the optional LoadR and when should it be used?
  • R121 (and others) are 0R - just a wire?

Well, not that much questions :rofl:

Many thanks in advance!

- yes
-no, choose them by size - 10mm Dia , I believe you'll find them as "surge limiter"

-if you ave Quasimodo, you need to test your xformers; if not, omit them
-only in ase if you want to invoke much heavier load for buffer, thus invoking some higher 2nd ; say that things are starting to happen with values down from 4K3; but - you didn't go for IP because of sweetness...... so don't bother
-value of 0R means - either wire ( take care of isolation in some positions) or fancy resistors with one black stripe; reason why fancy resistors with one stripe exists - robots for parts populating ( industry) are much easier working with resistor shape than with shape of plain wire bridge

Some porn, half way to heaven :goodbad: :deerman:
Some parts still missing, I will get them next week, hopefully.
