hum-hum-humhum...
well...
found
10 uf microfarad capacitors of which I need 2 ..one for input one for output...

found the .1 uf ceramic capacitor I'd need too...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/360693274546?...84.m1436.l2649

And I can find plenty of 5v voltage regulators...like...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/3-x-LM7805-L7...item3a67f15482

But try to find a lm7804 (4v) voltage regulator (small enough) anywhere...? Not so easy...

Of course I am no electronics wiz ....in the slightest...
I do believe I am roughly on the right track...but I'd rather be certain...
ESPECIALLY with wiring stuff up...
I'm more of an explosions, lotsa coloured smoke and ever expanding foam blowing out the doors and windows kinda mad scientist ...
Not really the electrocution-with-the-sparks-and-the-convulsive-uncontrollable-shaking-smoking-and-then-PERSONALLY-exploding-kinda-mad-scientist...

There is a reason why the massively obvious switch is way over on the other side of the room when Igor throws it y'know...
